I got a nice little surprise this week. It turns out that my twitter feed (@Laelaps) was recommended by Scientific American in their latest issue. The scan I have (kindly sent to me by Anne-Marie Hodge) makes the endorsement a little difficult to see, but it simply reads;
Brian Switek, science writer with a focus on evolution (@Laelaps)
With any luck my name will someday appear in the magazine as an author of an article, but this is not a bad start. And congrats to Karen James (@kejames), too, who was also recommended by the folks over at SciAm.
Wow. The next step is to get them to review your book.
One has to take what one can get. It's not bad for a start.
Congratulations.
Huzzah!
I've been following you on twitter since you started tweeting. I'm looking forward to reading your book.
