I was wondering if people would be willing to offer up their expertise for other writers to run their ideas past here?
For instance, I'm a former physicist and researcher (phd in QM and a masters in philosophy) and have been working at the cutting (disastrous) edge of finance for the last 15 years. I've been science advisor to a couple of people (such as Adrian Tchaikovsky in Children of Time) as well as helping quite a few others understand the basics of economics.
I also love talking about those subjects to anyone who'll listen...
Is there anyone else who'd be willing to offer their own expertise up for advice?
For instance, I know NOTHING about how armies, navies and air forces work, their structures etc. I'm always writing stories that tangentially touch on those subjects and would love to make those parts feel more authentic.
Anyway, it would be lovely to have that expertise available to those of us who come here to help one another out.
