But *good* writing is difficult. We have to try. We have to re-work what was written. We have to change sequence of ideas. We have, at the worst, to consider that all we had written bad enough to be thrown away, and re-start. And, if we publish, we have to be willing to read the critics, and try to improve. But, if we do not try, and persevere, we will never be able to write something that can be understood. I have already, in a previous email in this thread, given you some ideas on how to write. Try them. Research for other tips. Try them. Listen to critics (which, usually, will be a written text). Respond in writing. > In fact that's what usually happens when I answer in text.

How will you be able to write it if you cannot justify your proposal in writing (H/T to Gunnar Hjalmarsson, good point). [in fact the hat tip above comes to show that *others* can have good insights. I am not infallible. Nobody is.] > I will simply keep those as short as possible. And instead of making > a monologue, with all the information, I would simulate an actual > conversation.

Then you put the transcription in an email and, lo and behold, you have written text. Cheers, ..C..
