I understand that How Stuff Works is seeking freelance writers, and I'd like to be considered. My freelance work has appeared in dozens of publications (including National Lampoon
and The Onion A.V. Club), I've served as a copywriter for several media, marketing, and tech firms, and my first book,
Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny, was released last March to praise from Alan Dershowitz, Rolling Stone,
Skeptic, and other sources. Between my biology-centered book and my work as a tech company marketing copywriter, I've garnered quite a bit of experience breaking down complicated topics into layman-friendly prose.
Let me know if you'd like to discuss this further.
