Black Hole Sunday: This Sunday on the Discovery Science Channel is Black Hole Sunday! Lots of programming regarding just about everything you want to know about black holes, supermassive black holes, a series on How the Universe Works, and of course Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. Cool stuff!
If you don't have the Science Discovery Channel then I encourage you to contact your cable provider and ask them for the channel. You'll be glad you did!
Women of Science: I have another Women of Science series coming up. I did this last year and the response was one of the best I ever had. I have five fascinating posts lined up for July.
Attention Self-Pubbed Authors: I saw this link on Old Kitty's blog Ten Lives and Second Chances on Monday. HERE'S something for you fans of self-published authors! Nominate your fave self-pubbed author and the Guardian newspaper will interview them and highlight their novels!
Mary Pax and Backworlds: Congrats! to MPax and her success with Backworlds and her recent Free Download promotion with Kindle. Backworlds reached #23 on Amazon's Best Seller Rank for Free Downloads and hit #1 for Adventure and Space Opera!

Finally: When all else fails and you think you're out of gas and can't move foprward, take the advice from the Penguins of Madagascar. Just Smile and Wave.
Just smile and wave, boys! Just smile and wave.
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice for book of the week.
So will all those shows on black holes suck you in?
I'm smiling and waving. And congratulations to Mary P.
ReplyDeleteI love that channel and I'll be either watching or recording much of that stuff this weekend. Good news about Mary's latest!
ReplyDeleteBlack hole Sunday? Isn't that what NBC has *every* night :)
ReplyDeleteLove the science adventures and how you spread the space love!
ReplyDeleteWonderful selection of topics to read about.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
The black hole shows are great! Better than just about any thong else on TV. There will be a quiz on Monday.
ReplyDeleteI've seen Tyrean everywhere this week! Congrats on the book!
ReplyDeleteRemember this: "The Black Hole" (1979) Maximillian Schell, Anthony Perkins, Robert Forster, Joseph Bottoms, Yvette Mimieux, and Ernest Borgnine.
ReplyDeleteCongrats #1 Mary! Congrats Author-of-the-Week Tyrean!
Everything is better with a penguin on it. :-)
I find black holes quite a frightening thing from all the programmes I have seen about them so far.
ReplyDeleteBlack Hole Sunday almost makes me wish we had satellite again. And I have to agree with Lexa. Penguins do make everything better.
ReplyDeleteHi Steve .. so much is going on .. but I'm looking forward to your series on women scientists - should be very informative ... and The Guardian self-publication search .. sounds so helpful and it'll be interesting to see what they come up with ..
ReplyDeleteCheers Hilary
I don't get the Discovery Channel, but of course wish I did.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for your women scientist series.
Really like your masthead, Stephen.
ReplyDeleteYou have lots going on. I get Discovery, but not Science.
Love the Discovery Science Channel! This morning was a series on Wonders of.the Universe with Dr. Brian Cox. Better than anything else on TV.
ReplyDeleteSmiling and waving!
