So why are we suggesting you write more given the current glut in academic publications? Well, there's a lot you can't say or fit into a traditional journal article (history, stories, data, code, etc). What's more, people can't digest let alone find every single article they want, so providing a summary of a key finding might entice readers to learn more (and you can link directly to your work!). Also, there are tons of citizen scientists \textbf{citizen scientists}  out there who love reading about science, buteither can't access becuase paywalls or  don't have the time time, resources,  or background to sift through standard scholarly accounts. We're all connected now. Share your knowledge with the world.
