Biography

Stephanie Zvan is an analyst by trade, but she's paid not to talk about it. She also writes science fiction and fantasy, so she knows firsthand that the impact of a story is usually unrelated to its truth. As though that weren't enough to keep her busy, Stephanie is also one of the hosts for Atheists Talk, a radio show and podcast produced by the Minnesota Atheists. She speaks on science and skepticism in a number of venues, including science fiction and fantasy conventions. Stephanie has been called a science blogger and a sex blogger, but if it means she has to choose just one thing to be or blog about, she's decided she's never going to grow up. In addition to science and sex and the science of sex, you'll find quite a bit of politics here, some economics, a regular short fiction feature, and the occasional bit of concentrated weird. Oh, and arguments. She sometimes indulges in those as well. But I'm sure everything will be just fine. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all.

The Appeal to the Naive Observer
