Another track about what 'counts' as writing. Although it doesn't look much like work, doing the intellectual work of figuring out what you are going to write definitely counts. Even if you are sitting in a comfy chair with a cup of tea while you do it.

In this track I engage with a series of posts Rohan Maitzen wrote about what counts as research to expand your sense of what you might do with the time you have allocated for writing and research. 

The posts I was inspired by are:

• When is reading research? https://rohanmaitzen.com/2012/02/05/when-is-reading-research/
• Sowing seeds: on the duties of professors https://rohanmaitzen.com/2016/06/10/sowing-seeds-on-the-duties-of-professors/
• Reflections on our research culture https://rohanmaitzen.com/2016/06/10/sowing-seeds-on-the-duties-of-professors/
