Writing journal articles

Case study: Stephen Moyer

I came along an article Moyer wrote on distressed investing published in the Journal of Applied Corporate Finance. It sparked the idea of writing journal articles during gaps in employment throughout my career. I would like to know how you think this would be perceived and the benefits it would have in fund management.
