    1. Hey Azat Mardan!
      Enjoy your website, publications, and posts! …Also a fellow paleo enthusiast.

      I saw your recent announcement of the four new books you edited coming out this year from Apress.
      Was curious if you had heard of Publica.com as a possible future publishing option?

      Big Fan,
