Welcome back. It's a shorter edition than usual, in places, partly because I took a little time off at the start of the week. I hope you managed to get some time off too. The distribution of paper shares was unusual this week. Initially, I only found a few papers to include - but after lowering the threshold slightly there were many. Instead of sharing coalescing around a few papers it seems people's reading was much more diverse than usual.For complicated reasons, I've started walking with a cat at half-past four in the morning over the holiday. While the cat is happy finding somewhere in the undergrowth to sit and stare, it's a bit of a quiet time for me so a perfect time to catch up with podcasts. A new addition is No Time to Read by former Botany One guest blogger Arif Ashraf. Arif will be talking to a paper author about an article each episode. I'm looking forward to listening to it. If I can also persuade the cat that he doesn't need to go out till six in the morning, I'll enjoy it even more.Until next week, take care,Alun (webmaster@botany.one)
