I'm passionate about the connection between storytelling and learning, particularly important lessons from human history about things like morality, infrastructure, and how human groups function. Let's be friends!
@eleanorkonik The challenge of crafting story to plausibly impress those lessons into / onto doubting or closed minds.
Decent fiction writers spend years on a single piece. They expand a small idea outward to a story.
Scientists spend years learning science, then condense domains, render abstract to idea, and only then, expand to well told prose. Whew!
I fantasize a story - a post grad science writing residency program. Residents given opportunity to build storytelling skills.
