I'm going to write an E-book called Space Advocacy for the Space Cadet. This idea was inspired by Problogger's 31 Days to a Build a Better Blog. I want to make a collection of 60 daily tasks that will made the reader a better space advocate. I am giving this book out for free and it will be under a Creative Commons license. This page will serve as a hub for this project.
Do you want to help?
Great, I plan to have a draft ready by July 31st. If you feel like helping me edit it, write a comment to this post. I need help hosting the PDF, so if you want to distribute this E-book, post a comment. If you want to contribute a a task... you guessed it. If you want more privacy, I have a contact form set-up.People helping
I posted a request for help on Help A Reporter Out and these people have been helping me:
~The Coalition for Space Exploration provided me with information on space advocacy and NASA's effect on society
~The makers of the astronomy software Redshift 7 have made themselves available for interviews
~Dr. Charles E. Gannon is occasionally consulting me on some of the aspects of the project
Release date: October 4th, 2009
Mark your calendars for October 4th, 2009, the anniversary of a major spark in space exploration, Sputnik 1. Prepare to be reignited*.
