Paper writing is a continual process and begins with an outline of your experimental approach. Before work begins you should read the literature to familiarize yourself with methodology especially to overcome any experimental obstacles. While your paper should be novel, you may gain valuable insight regarding experimental methods or analytical tests that are appropriate to include in your paper.
There may be times when your experiment is progressing slowly. During this time you can write your introduction, literature review, assess your data to date, think about you data and what it means and how it addresses your hypothesis.
Also, consider a method to write the paper as soon as possible to explain your idea with experiments to validate claims! VIDEO
