Hi Shawn, I'm a freelance publicist and journalist currently located in London. What do you want to get out of your articles? I will look at your site and get back to you with a proposal! I like eccentric!!
Shaun J.07 Jun 2018Ideally I'd like to see my account of evolution become an acknowledged alternative to new-Darwinism. Since no way would a straight account be taken seriously, I can see my account becoming known only incidentally to the focus being directed onto myself for being such an eccentric as to persist in pursuit of such a misguided mission.
I'm looking for a writer with connections to suitable "serious" publications, who in a profile of me could balance irony, nostalgia, grudging admiration for persistence in the face of rejection, pride in a British tradition (the soap box) surviving in a foreign land, but also some recognition of neo-Darwinism's flaws, and that knowing we evolved is hard to reconcile with our need for life to have meaning.
Myself, I feel I am intelligent, not eccentric, keenly aware of gaping flaws in the scientific account of evolution, and capable of sophisticated communications on the subject. My main barrier is, no one has any interest in my subject. There's no public awareness of the threat that I see, of purely physical mechanisms of evolution leading to a descent into barbarism. Or of how alternative origin stories could lift our spirits.
For my seriousness, search for a review of my latest book, and my author page, by my name at kirkus.com. Check out my reviews of classic evolutionary texts at evolutionforthehumanities.com. For eccentricity search at youtube for my channel "evolved self." For a list of all my resources check out evolvedself.com.
