Well, I am starting 2008 with a post on a very informative conference of Dr. Barbara Gastel. She is an Associate Professor at Texas A&M University. She is the co-author of the very famous book on "How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper".
Dr. Barbara Gastel told that "Writing a scientific paper is a matter of organization" . Taking note of all suggestions made by her, we can say that its very important for us (beginners) to choose the journals we wish to publish our work, and structure our paper in the same way the journal does. Following the instructions in the journal web page is very important too. After writing, the paper should be revised many times before sending it to the journal for publishing.
Following link is a blog maintained by Dr. Barbara . She informed that TIPS on writing scientific paper can be found in this blog and she welcomes comments and questions on this blog.

The foremost important thing in publishing a scientific paper in journal is to define the objectives clearly, plan and execute the work with proper methodology. Always remember the golden rule that "It is not just writing. It is expression of your scientific work in an organized & clear manner with supporting data".
Doing our scientific work, we must do our best to achive the greatest award for it, To Have Published It !!
