Goal for today, June 3:

Continue editing the 1800 words to make it more streamlined and coherent and start reading one of the seminal and recnet articles from Systen, the journal we want to publish in (Xu & Gibbons, 2025). 

Assessment of my goal.

I continued editing and now have 2300 + words, which could be getting long for a the first sections of the article. I got through only 6 pages of the Xu & Gibbons and am still reading their review of the literature and checking out their sources. Some of them are set in China though and are not that relevant.
