Writing papers is an essential part of the research process. Researchers have a professional obligation of disseminating their results, making them available for others to use to enhance common scientific knowledge.

Abstract
Writing papers is an essential part of the research process. Researchers have a professional obligation of disseminating their results, making them available for others to use to enhance common scientific knowledge. Besides the fun of sharing their own ideas and views, to publish is essential in order to actually have a scientific career. Although scientific writing certainly has its own conventions and standards, I suspect there is no a unique true recipe making the trick. As a matter of fact I do not have any. However my quite long time in the academic arena has given me a pretty clear idea about how I do and do not like things done. In this paper I will be giving my personal view and rules, in the hope that sharing my own experience would do some good to others as it did for me.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
