Well, I have written and sent off my first commissioned piece of work. Hopefully it will be good enough for them to pay me. Personally, I think it's a work of genius, but I suppose the client is always right? How wrong could I be though, with a lesson plan that includes making monsters.... That has to be cool (for the kids definitely, but the intention is that they learn by accident, so the teachers should be happy too!).
I've also been busy writing another article about one of my favourite series of books: The Darwin Awards. Please check out the links within the article. This series, and the website, are fantastic! For teaching evolution, you cannot get more relevant than this!
Officially, I class myself as a Freelance Science Education Consultant, but 'Wandering Scientist' somehow sounds more cool!
Welcome
This wasn't really part of the plan if I'm honest.... When I was at school, and people asked what I wanted to do with my life, this would not have been the first thing on my list...... That said, neither would it have been the last thing on my list. At the time, I was not aware that there would be possibilities in the future to work in such a flexible way without having a "proper" job.
The purpose of this blog is to act as a vent for my frequent ramblings, to document the successes (and inevitable failures) of my progress starting out on this Freelancing adventure, and possibly to offer some insight to others who may be considering a similar non-conformist career path.
