+        at <i>Quintessence of Dust</i>, after another long hiatus. Here are some of
+        my reasons.</div><div><br /></div><div>1. I like to write, and I have things
+        to say, and I self-identify as an author. For eight years, I have co-organized
+        and taught in the <a href=\"https://meetings.cshl.edu/courses.aspx?course=C-WRITE&amp;year=23\"
+        target=\"_blank\">Scientific Writing Retreat at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory</a>.
+        I''m a writer and I need to write, if only for myself.</div><div><br /></div><div>2.
+        I have an idea for a book, along with some introductory work (but no sample
+        chapters yet) and writing here will help me develop those thoughts. The idea
+        is over twelve years old and has never faded away, which I take to mean that
+        I need to get it out of my system somehow.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. I
+        have other ideas kicking around in my head and most of them are worth writing
+        about. I have one new intellectual passion that is totally worth writing about:
+        <a href=\"https://skyislandalliance.org/the-sky-islands/\" target=\"_blank\">the
+        Sky Islands</a> that nearly surround us here in Tucson.</div><div><br /></div><div>4.
+        I have an exciting new job with great new people at <a href=\"https://plos.org/\"
+        target=\"_blank\">an organization</a> that''s all in for <a href=\"https://plos.org/open-science/\"
+        target=\"_blank\">open science</a>. I recently turned over the tens digit
+        on my age-o-meter. My kids will very soon be all out of college. (One is about
+        to start a postdoc!) All of this led, predictably, to a spasm of reflection
+        on projects and vision. One clear result is that I''m feeling more inspired.<span><a
+        name=\"more\"></a></span></div><div><br /></div><div>5. The demise of Twitter
+        has led to a lot of <a href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2022/11/twitter-facebook-social-media-decline/672074/\"
+        target=\"_blank\">useful commentary</a> about the nature of social media.
+        I left Facebook two years ago and all but left Twitter two months ago. I''m
+        on a <a href=\"https://fediscience.org/explore\" target=\"_blank\">good server
+        at Mastodon</a> and I like it; maybe microblogging there can satisfy my desire
+        for conversation and connection. But <a href=\"https://www.theverge.com/23513418/bring-back-personal-blogging\"
+        target=\"_blank\">this recent piece</a> at <i>The Verge</i> by <a href=\"https://moniquejudge.com/\"
+        target=\"_blank\">Monique Judge</a> convinced me that blogging could (again)
+        have a place in the future.</div><div><br /><div>Here''s her summary, emphasis
+        mine:</div><div><blockquote>At the end of the day, we don’t know what is going
+        to happen next with Twitter or any of these platforms. We don’t know what
+        changes <a href=\"https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/definition/Web-30\" target=\"_blank\">Web
+        3.0</a> is going to bring to the internet. We do know that <b>we will all
+        still be here, wanting to share our thoughts, talk about anything and everything,
+        and commune with our people</b>. Personal blogging is the simplest and fastest
+        way to do all of that. </blockquote></div><div>That''s what I want! A place
+        to write, and (if I''m lucky) a place to discuss and \"commune\" with people.
+        That used to happen a lot at <i>Quintessence of Dust</i>.<span></span></div></div></div><div><br
+        /></div><div>Okay, but why here? This blog is over 15 years old and was started
+        when I was a Christian believer. <a href=\"https://sfmatheson.blogspot.com/2007/08/kicking-off-my-blog.html\"
+        target=\"_blank\">Its founding themes</a> were anchored in a desire to help
+        Christians understand and enjoy biology, to help them shake free of misinformation
+        and dishonesty. It has twice languished through long hiatuses and was <a href=\"https://sfmatheson.blogspot.com/p/about.html\"
+        target=\"_blank\">remodeled</a> back in 2017 a few years after I deconverted.
+        Maybe it''s time to start anew? I think not, for many of those same reasons:
+        I''m still a biologist who loves science, still worried about misinformation,
+        and still rooted in the power of scientific explanation. I''m still a bardolator
+        and a Red Sox fan. <a href=\"https://sfmatheson.blogspot.com/p/about.html\">I''m
+        still me</a>, and <i>Quintessence of Dust</i> is still my blog. The new <a
+        href=\"https://sfmatheson.blogspot.com/p/about.html\" target=\"_blank\">About
+        page</a> is slightly remodeled from 2017, and hints at the next post, which
+        will outline some new goals and ongoing projects.</div><div><br /></div><div>A
+        final note on inspiration, from Imani Perry, writing in her newsletter (<a
+        href=\"https://newsletters.theatlantic.com/unsettled-territory/\" target=\"_blank\">Unsettled
+        Territory</a>) at <i>The Atlantic</i>. The piece is \"<a href=\"https://newsletters.theatlantic.com/unsettled-territory/63af3facace609003751bacc/becoming-writer-habit-journalism/\"
+        target=\"_blank\">Writing is a Democratic Art</a>.\" It''s for subscribers
+        only but here is her challenge:</div><div><blockquote>Thinking and writing
+        at a faster pace stretched me and gave me greater confidence. Sometimes I
+        changed my mind about what I’d written a day later. But that was okay; a newsletter
+        is a moment in time. Writing it each week gave me a lovely rhythm in what
+        has otherwise been a difficult and disorienting season in history. Feeling
+        stuck can get you stuck. But writing can, and should, inspire deeds.</blockquote></div>","published_at":1673233380,"updated_at":1680470227,"indexed_at":1689006804,"authors":[{"url":null,"name":"Stephen
