@1juliarosen @TheAtlantic @ayanaeliza @jaimealyse @nijhuism Congratulations! What an achievement. Can't wait to read this story!

I could not be more excited that my phosphorus story for @TheAtlantic made it into the Best American Science and Nature Writing! It was a labor of love, many years in the making. So much gratitude to @ayanaeliza & @jaimealyse for including it! And to @nijhuism for giving it life!

Loved the playful descriptions and fascinating ant facts in Maria Leuzinger's "The Surprising Scale of Ants." I had the pleasure of workshopping her story in one of our classes and was thrilled to read the polished piece in @SciWriterMag. thesciencewriter.org/scale-stories/…

Israeli scientists have made a self-powered device that could bring back tactile sensation for patients with nerve damage. I wrote about it for @DiscoverMag's website. discovermagazine.com/mind/scientist…

Thank you @kathrynschulz for speaking so honestly and articulately about your writing and life. So many great takeaways. You're an inspiration!

Excited to attend a JHU Author Talk tonight with Pulitzer Prize-winning writer @kathrynschulz. Her recent New Yorker article blew my mind with its deep dive into the original, "grimly existential" story of Bambi. newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…

@saugat_optimist I loved this book!

Next Up: Project Hail Marry I am in the middle of this book and I plan to finish it by 15th May (4 chapters each day).

Guys, twitter commitment WORKED. I finished the last novel "The kind worth Killing" in six days (a day more than what I commited for, but still an achievement). And I actually loved this process of making a thread of reading updates. So I will try to follow up on this.

@ryanrockets Thank you! And thanks for letting me know about the mismatched link.

@renakingery Nice story! The one linked in Featured Works on your personal web page leads to a FedEx article instead.

What a fun piece to write! It was a pleasure getting to know the open-water swimmers of Bellingham and sharing their little slice of joy with the rest of the community.

On March 2, the first-ever copies of CDN will be available — for free, in the interim — at about 50 locations throughout Bellingham. If you want to save a trip and have the paper delivered directly to your mailbox, contact member@cascadiadaily.com to subscribe.
