For this exercise, please use the paper you plan to work on in the course. You can choose a paper you are currently working on and for which you already have a draft. OR you can choose something more preliminary, say, a promising project that you have been working on and for which you would like to write up a draft.
GOAL
What is your goal? For instance, your goal may be "to get this paper published" or "to get a job" or it might be "to make a contribution to the ongoing discussion on X"
Be specific. If your goal is to publish, which journal do you have in mind? If it is to get a job, what places/positions are you considering? If it is to make a contribution to the ongoing discussion on X, what exactly will that contribution be and why will others see it as a contribution?
