Writing - science - funny - literary? Maybe I am a writer...

So... In an attempt to procrastinate some time away, I've put in the effort to collect all of the silly science humour pieces I've written over the years (as well as some of the few non-humour pieces I've written) into one easy to visit website.

After doing this, I can't believe how much stuff is there. It's funny, but I always thought it was like some very minor hobby, but there's actually quite a bit of stuff there when you put it all in one place. Granted, that almost half the pieces are at places where I get to play editor, but still, maybe, it's time to not feel stupid and embarrassed when people call me a writer.

Anyway, take a peek at davengwrites.com. Hopefully, some of it is good for a laugh.
