Possibly. Anyway, I’ve now been formally taken on as one of the associate editors of the palaeontological journal ‘Historical Biology’ (my thanks to Gareth Dyke for his invitation to join the board). Having preached much about peer review, reviewing and writing papers and even the editorial process I hope that I can put this all into practice. This might put more people off than it encourages, but those of you writing palaeontological papers, (perhaps as part of the PPC?) an at least consider HB as your target journal.

Congrats, Dave!
Well let’s see how it goes, but I was pleased to be asked yes. Thanks.
Some awareness that the Taylors are involved in ‘truth-in-advertising’ investigations with regard to the entertainment industry should be apropos.
Do you mean Taylor and Francis? I’m not aware of these publishers being involved in the entertainment industry and even so, I’m not sure how that is especially relevant to an academic journal.
