Want to Earn More with Your Writing? Have We Got The Seminar for You!

All spring we’ve been counseling writers who have come to realize that going wide with ebooks is not bringing in the kind of income that the writers had hoped for. The days off to all the retailers and making a small fortune are gone. Now, writers need to expand their horizons even more, doing other […]…

🚀 Breaking news: 1,300-year-old poem found in Rome! 🎉 Someone alert the historians, they've just unearthed yet another ancient way to tell us "Roses are red" in Old English. 📜 But don't worry, Trinity College Dublin will soon have 500 #seminars to explain how this changes everything we thought we knew about rhyming. 😂

I have reviewed a few submissions, one from a very important lady who works for a very important cause. I'm very happy to speak about the publishing industry process a little later, but im happy to read her book. As for right now, im looking for some mystery and suspense novels. So start sending them in. #pitch #seminars #publishing #reading #norway #software #france #nowplaying #movies #france #america #television #video #taiwan #southafrica #china #Afghanistan #iran #mywork

Free online symposium on using environmental DNA to detect insects. Feb 13, 2026, 11:30-3:30 EST. Multiple talks will be given by eDNA researchers, on bees, butterflies, pollinator networks, and more.

There will be a panel at the end if you have any questions about using eDNA in your own work.

Why I don’t like recording events

I was asked earlier why I don’t like recording events and realised I’d never actually written it down. There are a few reasons I feel increasingly strongly about this:

• We have started to record academic events by default and I think that is fundamentally problematic in principle
• There’s an assumption that the ease with which we can record online events means we should record them and I just don’t get why that is
• There’s a fundamental value in the academic event as something that brings people together synchronously which recording undercuts
• The biggest problem with online events is passive engagement and (automatic) recording of them fits into that structure
• The quality of engagement should be more important than the quantity in most cases. What matters is how richly a core audience engages and there are trade offs which we need to recognise.
• Recording undermines the space for intellectual improvisation and risk taking
• The evidence I’ve seen (as someone who ran a lot of academic social media for a long time) is that engagement rates with event recording is very slow.
• My hunch is that the request for a recording often tracks a fear of missing out as much as it does a deliberate intention to engage with the recording

I’m not saying never record events. Clearly this serves a purpose in some cases. But we should only record events when we are clear about the rationale for doing so.

I'm particularly looking forwards to hearing Lindsay Weinberg and Anish Vanaik speak. Lindsay's work has been hugely influential for me in the last months as my HE institution continues its terrifyingly uncritical adoption of AI.

Free online genomics seminar - Genomics for Biodiversity Conference, October 29-31. All hosted on youtube. There are 3 parallel sessions on management, conservation, and genomics standardization.
