A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I've just chosen to skip my fruit and veg box for this coming Friday (too busy for all that food prep right now) but added a 2kg box of cherries for 28th November. Summer has its upsides.
