How to Work from Home with a Baby
http://kathrynhulick.com/how-to-work-from-home-with-a-baby
How to Work from Home with a Baby. April 17, 2015. Our first child arrived on December 3, 2014. I made the decision not to return to my full time job, and to write from home while caring for Seth (the cutie pictured here). I mailed out samples of my work to nonfiction book packagers, and received my first assignment at the end of March — a book on artificial intelligence with a one-month turn around. Yikes! Rule #1: When baby is napping, I’m working. He didn’t love the baby wrap or carrier at first...

Rare Rhinos, Tigers, and More
http://kathrynhulick.com/rare-rhinos-tigers-and-more
Rare Rhinos, Tigers, and More. October 5, 2014. My latest article for Science News for Students. Goes in a totally different direction than my first one (all about free electron lasers. While rhinos and tigers are simpler in some ways than x-ray lasers, the article still took months from start to finish. First, I read Eric Dinerstein’s book, Kingdom of the Rarities. Interesting facts I learned while working on this article:. One-horned rhinoceroses are making a comeback in Nepal. Rhino pee is worth money.

The Science of Tennis. September 2, 2012. My most recent feature article in Odyssey magazine. Is called “Engineering the Perfect Game,” in the July/August issue covering the science of the Olympics. I’ve never been a very sporty person, and at one point in my life if you asked me what I thought about the Boston Celtics’ chances, I’d have said, “Umm, what sport was that again? 2 Tennis racquet strings used to be made from cow intestines… and some still are!

Saturn and a Pale Blue Dot

Saturn and a Pale Blue Dot. September 13, 2014. Decided to put together an issue on “the Earth from space,” I knew Cassini’s photo, titled “ The Day the Earth Smiled. 8221; had to be included. It was great fun to learn about the process that allows a spacecraft a billion miles away to take pictures and send them back to Earth, but my favorite part of the article is that I got to quote Carl Sagan. Back in 1990, the Voyager 1 team took a picture of the Earth from space, called Pale Blue Dot. The Earth is t...
