“But Kate, why?” I hear you cry, rending your garments.
So many reasons. I have neglected this business dreadfully, and while I would like to blame that on my day job, the real reason is that my heart just isn’t in it anymore. There are so many boring bits to running a business, and I am so very bad at marketing. I just want the interesting bits: talking with kids about evolution, designing fun things, and being outraged politically.

There are so many boring bits to running a business, and I am so very bad at marketing. I just want the interesting bits: talking with kids about evolution, designing fun things, and being outraged politically.
So change is called for. Here’s the new plan.
First, license my evolution products to other manufacturers: people who actually know what they’re doing, people who have whole marketing departments. A company in Connecticut is nibbling, and you, my friends, can help move that deal forward. More on that in the next post.
- Fun ways to introduce kids to evolution
- Reviews of children’s books on evolution
- Links to kid-friendly evolution resources
- A smidgeon of science blogging on new research
- Color commentary on the politics of evolution education
- Why all this matters
Here are some cesspools I'd like to avoid:
- "Debates" about whether evolution is "controversial"
- Polarizing "religion vs. evolution" diatribes
- Personal attacks, nastiness, bad karma
- Spinach between the teeth, parking tickets, Murphy's Law
Welcome. This is going to be fun!
