As I mentioned in my previous post, I have posted a total of 57 scholarly papers on the Social Science Research Network since 2006. The table below shows the year in which I first posted a paper of mine to SSRN. (Again, here is a link to my SSRN homepage.) In summary, my most productive scholarly years were the even-numbered years of 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2020. Also, notice how my scholarly production fell off precipitously for three straight years, beginning in 2017. In my defense, during this three-year period of my scholarly life (2017, 2018, and 2019), I was co-authoring a new and comprehensive “Business Law & Strategy” textbook for McGraw Hill with my colleagues Sean Melvin and David Orozco–a massive endeavor that took up most of my free time during those years.
