h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi.
I have finally managed to get on here and would like to thank the Moderators for their assistance in this matter. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I had so much issues but the worse was loss of data. But now that I am back on here, I will be posting my new article on here soon. It’s entitled “Beyond the Source of The Nile.” It is is to do with the source of the Nile - but not just who found it or anything like that. There’s a lot more to it than that. You will see what I mean when I start posting it on here. The research is now complete, and the planning has started and once that is completed, I will be writing the manuscript on “Word Document” first as I find it extremely helpful and then will post it on here. That’s when I will need assistance.
Te research for this new article has taken me two to three years. But during this time, I did take some long breaks and then restarted from where I had left. But at one point, I had to stop and restart the complete research twice as I was not happy with some information. But then I restarted it again. So once this is ready – the manuscript, I will post it on here and let you know.
Take care and be safe. In the meantime, I wish you all a “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”

Hello!!

Great to see you in here again! Glad the moderators were able to solve your login issues

Well done with your research. Good luck with writing the manuscript, and keep us informed about how you're getting on

I hope you have a good festive season

All the best and take care

Sasha

Thanks Sasha. I will be keeping you informed. I am about to start on the first draft of the manuscript. I will probably have to do several drafts so that I can make sure that its all correct and ready to be handed in here.
Take care and speak to you soon.

Wish you all a "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year."

Thanks Sasha.
I behaved a bit like "Scrooge" today. All work and festivities. - pretending to be scrooge. LOL But seriously doing some work and then break.
Wish you and everyone else on here a Happy New Year.

Thanks Sasha.

I started to write on my drafts today and while doing it, I came up on some interesting piece of information, which I think will be vital to the introduction. So I am looking into that and am seeing how that will fit in. I think it may be very interesting. but I will need to look into it. .
Take care,

Thanks Sasha.

Sorry you had to work and be Scrooge, but glad you got some break. Good luck with the research for your introduction!

Thanks. It was well needed break. But I am now back and have started to write the first draft for the manuscript. Its taking some time as I need to read through my notes and everything that I have found,. I do this everytime. But its more important with this. LOL. Hopefully it won't be too long now before I hand it in.

All the best with it

Thanks.

Hi, I hope that you are all okay and safe.
Just to bring you up-to-date a bit. I have just come across some information that I feel I need to read through and make some notes and see how important it is for my article. I know that it is a major part of itbut I will need to read through it and make notes. This means that I will have to stop the writing of the article f for a few days. It means that I will have to stop the write for until as such time that O have completed the notes and read through the information. I apologise for this as I had not expected any new information. I was not expecting this. It means that there will be delay in handing over the script ,
Thanks and take care.

Just to let you know that there has been a bereavement in my family - mercifully not because of this corvid virus but from other old age and health issues. Hopefully this will not slow me down in my write up. I am still working on that. I mean the write up.

hi Just to bring you up-to-date. I have now started to work on the manuscript and it is taking some times as there is quite a lot write about and so I am just making sure that it all makes "sense "to the reader and that what I am writing makes sense. There may be a delay after this Thursday as I am to take my covid vaccine and have heard that this does cause fatigue, But I hope and pray that it will not be for too long .
Take care and be safe.

Hi Kitrapjasani - thanks for keeping us up to date

Sorry to hear about your bereavement.

Glad you got a vaccine appointment - hope all went well, and I hope the after effects are not too bad

Good luck with your writing

Thanks Sasha.

I have been re- reading through some of my research motes as i have been writing the manuscript and I feel that some footnotes maybe required so that some explanation can be given to readers as to who was who and etc.. I hope that is okay Also, at some point, I think it may be a good thing if the new article, when accepted, could be linked to one of my other ones - that is Dr David Livingstone as he is also mentioned in this and he was alive at the time and also, indirectly, was involved. So I think it may be a good thing if it was linked by the editors when it comes to it.

In the meantime, I am still working on the manuscripts for the article and hope to complete it soon.
Take care and be safe.

I have had some fever and some aches but hopefully it wont be too long before I am back to normal.

Yes, footnotes are good Links to other Entries are also important, so the Sub-editor will be able to add those in for you, yes

Good luck with your writing and all the best

Thanks. Hopefully it won't be too long before I have finished the manuscript to hand in.
