As part of my course, How to Think Sideways (see previous post), I am working on a science fiction novel. Never thought I’d write science fiction, but here I am. In order to prepare myself, I am brushing up on my astronomy and astrophysics. Quite a daunting task, I assure you. I am listening to lectures from a college Astronomy course, and I have a textbook to supplement that learning. I’m also doing specific research on certain topics using Wikipedia (a writer’s second-best friend).
It goes without saying that astronomy is a very widely diversified topic. Right now, I’ve got so much information that my brain is trying to desperately filter. I think I smell smoke. Oh, but it’s so cool.
You see, today is a momentous day.
Today, my story found a home.
