For our final random thread of the year, MuseBlog celebrates the current issue of Muse<\/em>: November\/December 2013. Its theme is light and color, with articles about animals that glow, colorful metaphorical idioms in assorted languages, and a robot that paints in watercolors.<\/p>\n

The issue also features Robert’s farewell Q&A column. After 13 years on the job, he is turning it over to Lizzie Wade, a thoroughly Muserly young woman who works as the Mexico City correspondent for Robert’s magazine, Science<\/em>. Although Lizzie never read Muse<\/em> as a child (she was a New Moon<\/em> girl), she is a fine journalist and the living embodiment of quirky geek-chic. Check out her Twitter feed @lizzie_wade !<\/p>\n
