Can explain these spammy emails from publication agencies who want to feature my academic articles? I've been told this this a scam, but I'm not sure how -- do they charge money to do this? Is this related to the dreaded ?

As far as I'm concerned, if some publication wants to write a feature based on one of my publications... go for it. You don't need to contact me about it.

@rwg @academicchatter Not in the UK myself, but the ones that I’ve received charge thousands for their ‘service’.
