The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts. "Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷♀️

Morning, all,
“Joey mad. Joey throw poop at TV…”
It’s Bad Bunny vs Trad Bunny, at the Superbowl. Settle back with a barrel of popcorn and a six-pack of yoghurts.
And, actually, all my best friends* are primates.
