Peter Tillman asked Emily Devenport:

Aren't you a little old to be an undergraduate? Or did you just start writing early? I'm thinking of EGGHEADS, which was published in 1996... Cheers, Pete Tillman, another (ex) AZ geologist PS: If you don't have a copy of John Shelton's GEOLOGY ILLUSTRATED, well, you should. PPS: your cover art is definitely looking up since those days.

Emily Devenport I'm a little old for just about everything. But I didn't start pursuing geology until I was fifty. These days I'm juggling a full-time day job (I'm a buyer at a museum book store), writing, a household, answering questions on Quora, and geology (which has been sadly relegated to the hobby department, for now). I probably won't pursue my bachelor's degree until I retire. Can you imagine what my fellow students will think of me? ; )

I'll check out John Shelton's book. Thanks, Peter.
