Can words save the world?

I grew up with my bare feet in the grass and my big nose in a book. My favorite tales explored human relationships with nature, from wilderness survival epics to ecological mysteries. Now, with our marvelous planet imperiled, I’m fighting for it the best way I know how: through scientific storytelling.

In biology, “wild type” refers to the most common genetic form of a species, as found in nature. It’s also irresistible pun about writing for environmental advocacy. My words alone can’t save the world, but I hope every reader I reach will find new appreciation for Earth, and inspiration to protect it.
