Scientists are busy
people. people.\\
We have deadlines to meet, meetings to attend, lectures to give. And of course we need to write papers, not only because we are excited to share our findings, but also because scientific papers are the currency of the academic world.

scientists, with the idea of scientists. The idea: improving the process of writing and sharing the results of research. While Authorea has big plans for the \href{https://www.authorea.com/8762}{paper of the future}, in this post I want to focus on the here and now. This is because when I talk about the platform to my colleagues, by far the most common question I get is "Why should I use Authorea to write my

Ok, If you got this far you deserve more than a list of fancy features, so here's my personal experience and why I think you should start using Authorea.
I have been switching to writing papers with Authorea about a year ago and I noticed a number of immediate improvements: first of all \textbf{my papers get written faster}. Then I noticed that I have \textbf{no need to exchange emails with collaborators} concerning the paper. This is
fantastic, all fantastic. All the action happens (and it's logged) on Authorea, including discussions about revisions and suggestions for
improvements. improvements.\\
This
said the most important upturn is something that said, I didn't really
expect. expect the most important upturn. By getting rid of the overhead
that I previously considered
as a necessary, unavoidable
part parts of the scientific writing process, something remarkable happened. I
started actually \textbf{started enjoying
much more writing. writing more}! And I do not mean just
publishing papers; that publishing; I had
it experienced that joy before.
The difference is I
now know cherish the time
that I spend putting my science into words. It might sound crazy, but Authorea did something amazing: it made me \textbf{discover the pleasure of writing science together} with my collaborators.
So if you ask me "Why should I write my next paper with Authorea?" my honest answer is "Because you will love it!". So \href{https://www.authorea.com/signup}{take Authorea for a spin} and make
up your own
mind. mind.\\
