Inspired by all the lovely pitchers at the #SciWri26 pitch slam, here's a very short, very incomplete list of pitching tips—the kinds of things that come up often when I'm reviewing pitches and providing feedback. Let me know what I missed! www.linkedin.com/pulse/five-p...

From the Project Director: "Spent a beautiful weekend at #SciWri26 reconnecting with @aaas.org MMF alumni, meeting prospective applicants, and talking with potential new partners. It was wonderful to have alumni from across four decades represented, from the 1980s through the 2020s."

The team at OSU put on a fabulous conference. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make it happen, and everyone who made the trek to our little town. For all its issues, we have a cool job, largely because of the people we get to call our colleagues. Travel safe and keep in touch. #SciWri26

He thanked you by name in his speech, and since interviewing you for @theopennotebook.bsky.social it was especially resonant to hear this. #editing #editor @sciencewriters.org @sciencewriting.bsky.social #SciWri26
Recruiting @kakape.bsky.social as a writer, back in 2011, was probably the best thing I have done at @science.org. Kai is one of the best science writers of his generation, and I'm thrilled his work is getting the honor it deserves. casw.org/news/kai-kup...

Yes, I was realizing that and hesitating to post such a short description…talk I’m at had way more nuance, but I wanted to post about the respect for Indigenous knowledge and how knowledge is made memorable and passed down generations through stories, song, and art… #SciWri26 #Cascadia
