I write science fiction and fantasy. But did you know I am also a science writer?

I hold a life science degree and years of research experience. While I currently do not work in science, I do write about it. I recently reentered the arena of science writing and had several articles published at SCIENCING. I’m going to list several of them for to explore. You will find a broad range of topics. They were tremendously satisfying to write! If you know someone looking for a science fair project idea, or you want to learn about the workings of DNA, or have some questions about the environment or physics, I hope you enjoy these!

1. The Role of Taq Polymerase in PCR
2. Real Life Parabola Examples
3. What Breaks Apart a Double Helix of DNA?
4. What Is the Electrical Impulse That Moves Down an Axon?
5. Purpose of a Cell
6. What Are the Benefits of Agriculture and Farmers?
7. Differences Between Coding & Template Strands

Update as of February 6, 2020: I now have many more articles posted on my website, on a special page you can find called Science Writing Articles. It includes an exclusive interview with a Mars geologist as well. Since this original post, I have written dozens more articles, but have not compiled them all into a list. Hope you enjoy reading a sample of them.

Learning leads to wonder!
