1. Data science, mostly visualization, sometimes as fiction.
2. Only a handful of times, over the past year. The time needed to write and edit can be long. I'm also trying to write a novel.
3. Medium. I'm a writer for a publication called Nightingale.
4. https://medium.com/@PhilHawkinsDC, my top article is this one: https://medium.com/nightingale/draw-the-rest-of-the-chart-88eb0e8babd4
