*Note: Although the steps to research and writing are presented here as a linear progression in which you start at one point and follow consecutive steps until you reach the end, the research and writing process is much more iterative in reality.   Make sure to reflect frequently on where you're at with your research and writing, and feel free to skip sections or return to previous ones as needed.
