I want to make my paper repository a little more readable, so I like to break sections out into separate .tex documents. However, this does not seem to play nice with the IEEE format. How can I get my intro (and subsequent sections) in a separate document and not have a page break before it?
MWE (sorry, just building off their example... super long):
in bare_jrnl.tex:
\documentclass[journal]{IEEEtran}
