What do you mean by "actual" science writers?  Like credentialed Journalists?

Ditto Brian's question.  I dabble in writing on the side for Thomson Reuters healthcare division and a couple of other freelance science writing sites.  I'm still postdocing but aiming to get into that area as soon as humanly possible.  I'd be interested to chat with you about what you do, how you got into, any advice etc.

Oh dear. Let's ward off another blogger v. journo debate, shall we?

Lol, that's not what I meant!  I just wanted to know what she meant ;)  I'd like to get a "real" writer's perspective.  I don't mind being considered an amateur.  I make my living doing science, not writing about it!
