Thesis version 0.1 beta
Wow.
It’s a very basic thing at the moment but it’s got a title page, table of contents, chapters and a bibliography.
It’s so dodgy at the moment I’m not even willing to consider it a 1st draft but it’ll do for sending to my supervisors and seeing if it hangs together at all. It doesn’t even have a full introduction yet, and probably all of the chapters could be 25% to 50% longer than they are. I hope it’s more like 25%.
I’ve realised:
- that I’ve been really lazy when it comes to putting references in, given the stringy nature of my bibliography;
- I might need at least one “interlude” chapter to explain various jumps;
- I obviously didn’t understand LaTeX when I started writing because there are times when I’ve skipped entire heading levels;
- I might need a whole big section in my penultimate chapter to account for a great new idea I’ve had recently.
Yay.
