I'm in year four. Year. Four.
My advisor says I'm close. My committee says I'm close. But I look at my word count and feel nothing.
I've been working on this for so long that I've lost all perspective. Is my argument even coherent? Do my chapters connect? Did I write that sentence three years ago or three days ago?
How do people finish these things?
I've tried writing groups. Accountability partners. Pomodoro timers. None of it sticks.
What actually works when you're in the swamp and you can't see the shore?
I need strategies from people who have crossed the finish line. Not platitudes. Actual strategies.
Please. I'm begging.
