I wrote mine in Word and it's SO UGLY. I wish I'd procrastinated more by fiddling with different rendering methods!

But starting with latex is almost always ~0 minute.

You can just write the text, and write the equations between dollar signs, and it renders you book quality output by default.

(You also can tweak it as much as you want it, and spend as much time as you want it on it.)
