Today I have had a book writing day, with some 150 words written on my scientific monograph Captured: CCS and the fight for the soul of the environmental movement. More importantly, after 2-3 weeks work (spread out on 10 half or full writing days), I finally finished going through the hundreds of articles and other texts I have downloaded as possible references and checking whether they are already used or placed in the manuscript.

So far this Spring I have had 44 writing days, including 36,5 book writing days.
