Meera is now a full time freelance writer and Inkling's managing online editor. She writes about science because it's one of the best ways she can think of to learn about the beautiful and the bizarre, and because if she followed the admonition to write what you know she would turn out nothing but articles about Hebrew poets and knee-high socks. Look for her at The Science Essayist and at Utata.org, where she is a contributing editor.
