Hi fellow future science writers, my name is Karen and I do not claim to know much about science, nor do I find it particularly interesting. In fact, my mom is a geologist and I grew up ignoring her while she explained the geology of every place we visited. I do remember there are two types of lava, a'a and pahoehoe (pronounced p'hoy-hoy). A'a is the stuff you wouldn't want to walk on barefoot, while pahoehoe is nice and smooth. One of them cooled faster than the other, or something.
Anyway, I wrote some other stuff about myself on my profile you can see on the right module of this blog, if you care to read it. I guess not much about me screams "science writer" but I do tend to want to learn about and do everything, so this will be a good way to expand my horizons while I keep truckin' on my degrees (hopefully I'll get two B.A.'s if I survive student teaching, but who really knows). At any rate I'm happy to have a great group of people in class, so this science thing should be pretty fun after all.
