✍️ Orhan Pamuk writes by hand for up to ten hours a day. Mornings are protected — no email, no calls, no interruptions.
His method: "You write in a poetic mood. The next morning, you edit like an engineer."
Two cognitive modes. Separated by sleep. Applied consistently, every day.
Whatever your field, there is something worth borrowing here.

Scientific writing is thinking in motion. Each draft exposes gaps and forces ideas to evolve. What looks like chaos is often the most productive stage of discovery.

Ein Komma in der gleichen Tabelle einmal als Tausendertrennzeichen und nur eine Zeile später als Dezimaltrennzeichen zu verwenden, sollte mit lebenslangem Berufsverbot für Statistik bestraft werden. 😉

Oder war das gar die böse KI? 🤔

Our university is married to Microsoft tools, but it does not mean that I have to.

Are there any FOSS alternatives that allow at least somewhat easy manuscript writing, editing and multiple people accessing the file at the same time?

If not, I can probably squeeze some project money for this, but not hundreds of euros/user/year (looking at you, Overleaf).

Today, @boas_pucker gave an insightful talk on scientific writing and academic publishing for our group (and interested students) at #UniBonn. Covered everything from how to structure a thesis and managing references with Zotero to how peer review actually works - especially useful for early-stage researchers. We will likely run it again this summer when more international guests are around. Interested students at UniBonn could reach out: https://www.pbb.uni-bonn.de
