In other news...

I have an article in this month's National Geographic about a badass rotating skyscraper. I also wrote the Your Shot page for this issue (it's uncredited, but trust me, I only lie sometimes). Please pick up a copy if you get a chance, and show Nat Geo some love!

Added item on my To Do at Lunch list: Buy this month's issue of National Geographic.
I feel like I know a celebrity! Well, and by "know" I mean "stalk online every chance I get."

So I read the article you wrote and it was really interesting. When I saw the NatGeo with the lizard looking thing on the front sitting on my dining room table, I threw my hands up in the air and was like "WINONA!" Of course my boyfriend had no idea what the hell I was so excited about and when I showed him the article all he had to say was, "Jenga!"

Congrats on being a big time writer!
