I just discovered at the NYTimes one source of good reading I had not known  and did so via one of its contributor’s final missives. It’s at the Opinionator on line-only site. Evolutionary biologist Olivia Judson is also an experienced writer and journalist. Her final posting before a sabbatical she’s taking is an accounting of how she develops and worries over topics to write on. She includes glimpses of her research and note-to-self filing and organizing system. A lot of us will recognize a few of her habits as our own, and perhaps pick up a few new ones.

A compilation of her past posts. Includes one on beer, hence the pic.
