What is a seismologist doing keeping a blog on writing.com? Well...
As all researchers, even seismologists write, and often. Mostly for work (articles, presentations, courses, computer programs...), but sometimes - when work and life permit - also for pleasure.
And like all other writers, we also procrastinate or get writer's block, or any number of excuses not to get down to the writing at hand.
So keeping a blog gives me a place to tap away, to get the juices flowing, to make myself want to write all that stuff that will have to be written sometime. It is also a place to point out the idiosyncracies of the world of research, to rant about the life of a scientist, but also to remind myself that I have chosen this line of work for a reason: discovering ever more about the world we live in, and possibly be useful to humanity in some way.
