Interview

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Superman!

What's your favorite social network?

Twitter! It's a great way to get news quickly -- often faster than traditional media sources -- and to connect with other writers.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Don't give up. Start small. Reach out to more experienced writers for advice. You can do this!

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

Probably that you have to have a PhD in science to be a science writer. You don't.
