Since my last post I have completed everything I planned to in my previous deadline/short term plan and this is the one replacing that.
Now I know exactly where I am going with my dissertation I am dealing with the more detailed areas of it, this basically involves finding all the sources and points to be used in the sections of my dissertation. As the first two sections in my dissertation have some overlap - they have a very militaristic basis - I have decided to plan and find the sources for those together (Military and Generalship). I am optimistic in completing this on time as the college library has many books I can use as I have previously checked and I already have lots of ideas I just need to write them down.
