In response to this post

I'm not so keen on traditional publishing paths.

One of my very first tech writing was as co-author with mostly men.

I was recruited to write my chapter because of the Neuromusclular-Junction simulation on which I collaborated with a Neuroscientist.

Amazon, when the book came out, decided to drop my name (and one other's) because they said '"tech books with women's names don't sell as well"

So, Amazon just erased me. Completely. At a time when it really mattered, in my career.

Ugh.

So, I'm thinking about writing about my approach to code and science and art...and maybe it being code-language agnostic...basically pseudo-code.

I've written code-tech chapters before...and languages come in and out of fashion...but the concepts carry across languages.

Anyway, would anyone be interested in me writing such a thing? Both science vis and artistic?
