Day 3

Day 3 (29th December)

2 more days to shut down this blog. This 100-day blog has been an experiment. It was not meant to be a daily journal because I already have one. It was intended to be reflective, a stream-of-consciousness narrative and I am not sure if I succeeded in that objective. Looking back, I find some of the entries mirroring my diary. When I started this blog, I was sceptical about daily updates. But they have happened almost everyday and I am quite pleased with my discipline. Now only if this can spill over into 2019. 
Research for the February column began today. Next year I will be writing 2 monthly columns. Will that leave me time for my book? If I don't write the book in 2019, it would most probably never happen. Columns work because of external deadline. Who will push the book?

Day 85

Day 85 (8 th October) An eventful day. During the course of the hectic day, a piece of good tidings sneaked in ever so gently that I almost failed to notice. Only late in the day, its import began to sink in.   My proposal to write on Artificial Intelligence in the Chemical Industry has been accepted. I will be writing a monthly feature on this for a leading industry magazine. A lot of interesting research lies ahead of me.
