Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: I think I'm pretty strong at seeing the broader picture and breaking it down into clear chunks and leading a person. If I hadn't included those pictures, that paper would've been 10 pages longer. It's really easy to show someone a picture. See for yourself. This is what I say. You can see for yourself. That's way easier than describing the whole thing and have the same effect as the figure. Success would be for the reader to go ahead and read my writing and get everything that I wanted them to get out of it and not get confused. And I would want them to forget about the writer and just think about what I'm trying to describe. It's like a good cameraman in a show. If you have a good cameraman, you'll never think about the camerawork. teacher def of success: I think the same thing.
