If it works, great, Fresh. the only suggestion I would have is to at least have one larger chunk of time at the end, to read through the whole paper and check carefully for repetition, redundancy and to ensure it has a good flow with a definite start, middle and end.

For me, If I took frequent long breaks, I would waste too much time rereading what I had already written to ensure a smoothe flow and logical progression. When I was teaching, it was scary how many papers looked like the author had not bothered to read them through after completion and contained major flaws, with repetition of ideas and entire sentences, and omission of large chunks of reasoning.
