I find that I've exhausted all sign-posting words, my vocab strinks at the rate of knots and all my arguments are in reverse order! Crumbs, this is awful. Feels like I'm in purgatory. How do other writer-upers feel?

Not to mention mixing up the cliches

i sent my sup a 2000 word summary yesterday and i just felt to so dumb, couldn't think of the right words or sentences..i just became so paranoid about it--and kept on thinking- 'cant send this' hes going to think i'm so stupid'

I usually get someone to cast an eye over what I've written before sending it to the sups - usually a post-doc. That way, if the sups think I'm stupid, its not just me. Crafty eh?
