40 Rules for thesis writing

Your thesis should tell a narrative, a story. That goes for the whole thesis, how each chapter runs into the next, and satisfies the reader what is the logic behind why he or she is moving from one subsection to the next. It also applies to the literature review.

-Your literature review should never be just a list of

papers.

-You should introduce papers into your story as

and when they are needed, to provide the evidence, background and ‘further

reading’ to which you believe a reader must have access. Tell a story.
