Abstract
In this chapter, we illustrate a stepwise progression through the thought processes and concrete tasks involved in writing an empirical report. These steps cover a range of topics from data presentation to writing mechanics. The chapter ends with a discussion of strategy—how to get one’s report published, manage the peer-review process, and plan the next publications.
