Really looking forward to this book!
had a chance to read The Peril of the Brutal Dark #1 this weekend by @christophcondon.bsky.social @thatjacobphillips.bsky.social & Hassan Ostmane-Elhaou…and THIS is a perfect #1, powered by fun noir subject matter, a great lead character, and a compelling mystery that lands on a chilling last panel

I was so pleased JC brought me in on this project.
If you write or are a journalist or do any kind of storytelling (science or not) I highly recommend checking this out. There is so much in the about mechanics and risk/benefits of how you connect to audiences.
We’ve now produced a toolkit to guide science communicators through (critically) using certain strategies. It has been beautifully illustrated by @jordancollver.bsky.social (in collab with @rikworth.bsky.social) and can be downloaded as a PDF here:
