What would you say to your younger, Early Career Researcher self? Advice from Hindawi Editors on how to go about writing your first manuscript.
We asked Hindawi Editors to share their advice and top tips when writing up a paper for the first time. Here’s what they said:
When you are done, your paper should say what you mean and not what you know how to say
“I am a native English speaker, and I have been writing for a long time. It is still hard work. It takes almost as much time to write a good paper as it does to do the experiments, so always allow enough time. Then after you write the first draft, rewrite it ten more times. This is not a joke. When you are done, your paper should say what you mean and not what you know how to say.

Future governments face a âhell of a challengeâ to repair the nationâs finances and will eventually need to return to âguard railsâ that target a balanced budget, former federal Treasury boss Ken Henry says.
Following almost $300 billion in fiscal stimulus in response to COVID-19 and more big permanent spending in last weekâs federal budget, Dr Henry said the traditional medium-term goal of balancing the budget over the economic cycle had been âsuspendedâ.
Ken Henry says the budget rules have been suspended, but must ultimately return when the economy recovers.Â

When Treasurer Josh Frydenberg was in his Canberra office four weeks ago and was told the unemployment rate had – again – fallen faster than anticipated, to 5.6 per cent for March, the Treasurer became confident that he could pull off the great budget pivot.
For months, Treasury and the Reserve Bank of Australia had privately been nudging the government not to turn off the fiscal support too sharply after the $90 billion JobKeeper wage subsidy finished.
The “official family” of public policy economists believed the government should get more ambitious on its unemployment target and aim to reduce the jobless rate below 5 per cent to get wages growth accelerating and inflation rising.
