***TIME-SENSITIVE*** Registration for Boot Camp closes TODAY at NOON Eastern Standard Time. We've got over 40 people now (!), so networking will be fantastic. I see even more graduated #SubatomicWriting students in the mix in addition to all our moderators, so you'll get to connect with more alumni from the MA in Science Writing Community at Johns Hopkins University—many of whom have book contracts, publications, and writing/editing jobs already. Last chance to join!

Citizen Science: Superstitious By Design: How We Negotiate Chaos, Uncertainty

When we’re young, the world unfolds in found talismans and nursery ditties. Singsong superstitions are verses in the narratives we construct about our lives. I was no exception.
