      This is a book for anyone who has ever thought 'What if?' A true story about a woman who dared to follow her dreams... Jessica Fox was living in Hollywood, an ambitious 26-year-old filmmaker with a high-stress job at NASA. Working late one night, craving another life, she was seized by a moment of inspiration and tapped 'second hand bookshop Scotland' into Google. She clicked on the first link she saw. A month later, she arrived 2,000 miles across the Atlantic in Wigtown, on the west coast of Scotland, and knocked on the door of the bookshop she would be living in for the next month... The rollercoaster journey that ensued - taking in Scottish Hanukkah, yoga on Galloway's West Coast, and a waxing that she will never forget - would both break and mend her heart. It would also teach her that sometimes we must have the courage to travel the path less taken. Only then can we truly become the writers of our own stories.

    • Once Upon a Biofuture: Tales for a New Millennium is an anthology of stories, from fiction to memoir, written by scientists about a powerful new technology that is re-engineering our world: synthetic biology. The authors, an international group of scientists, are based at the University of Edinburgh - alma mater of Darwin and home of Dolly the Sheep. The stories were recorded and transcribed, or workshopped and edited, by Jessica Fox, the former storyteller for NASA and artist-in-residence at the UK Centre for Mammalian Synthetic Biology in Edinburgh. The process allowed the scientists to lead the storytelling and retain their creative voice while working with an experienced writer to shape the narrative. Many of the stories are biographical, offering insight into how scientists become scientists, or taking us to new imaginative worlds. Once Upon a Biofuture is a captivating mix of biology, philosophy and mythology while, in classic anthology tradition, still being connected to a common theme: the very human lessons we learn through the maze-like quest of modern scientific exploration.
