Author D.B. Sieders is hosting me on her site this week. D.B. and I share a similar educational background in biology.  She stayed the course through graduate school to become a working scientist.  My road to a biology degree took a few detours. Join me as I muddle through the tricky wicket of advice on the writing craft.
