How to Write a Good Paper

I tried to get my students into writing mode, we go through several steps. One of the key messages I tried to give my students is that text is volatile. Don't get attached to text that you write. Same as with a prototype implementation, you generally need at least two or three tries, sometimes much more until you get a perfect fit. So don't be scared about completely rewriting the text and removing it. This will happen several times during the writing phase of the paper. Each paragraph that we are writing will be rewritten several times from scratch. But every time we have our last iteration in mind and we'll be able to kind of update it, make it better, make it more
