In addition to writing for children, as a professional Entomologist I also write for other audiences, particularly scientific journal articles about my research, or team-based research.
One project due out in 2023 is a book chapter for a new Bloomsbury’s Cultural History series, The Cultural History of Entomology: Insects in Art in the Age of Industry. It was a TON of fun to research and write, and I’m busy brainstorming about what to do next!
And if you want more insects in art, check out my journal article: Fireflies in Art: emphasis on Japanese woodblock prints from the Edo, Meiji and Taisho Periods.
