I just got back from coastal village this morning and so happy to be able to check my email, fb and twitter. An email from Sophie Campbell got my attention:

Honestly, for a second there I am quite surprised and think that this is a positive sign. However, I tried to check it online and found in some blog that this could lead into some shady practice. Although you will eventually get 5 copies of your work and maybe it would be nice to have it on your bookshelf, well i don't think I will trust them to do that. If you want to get your thesis or writings to be published, maybe you can contact your university or trusted publisher that you know.
