I'm slowly engaging with PR06 (EdD).
It's painful to go back to writing after having been busy doing other things (collecting data). It takes time, a substantial amount of time, to get into it fully.
For instance, right now I'm revising the work I've done so far on the EdD. I'm making changes to my thesis. And I feel the pain and temptation to procrastinate as writing and re-writing seems to me to be the most complex intellectual activity I can possibly do.
But once you get into it, it kind of makes sense and starts to move in a specific direction.
I wish I could write everyday, to prevent this feeling of 'rustiness' I get when I do it after some 'down' time.
In a way, writing in this diary is a way of not stopping, of keeping the flow of writing and preventing a prolonged disconnection from my studies.
