On Monday I attended my first meeting of the editors of Progress in Human Geography, one of the top three ranked journals in human geography. I take up my post as a new editor on Jan. 1st, though I've already been dealing with papers. I've therefore been on a crash course this week of trying to get to grips with how the journal functions and operates - every journal has its idiosyncracies and this one is no different. It was a real honour to be asked to join the editor's team, so hopefully I won't muck the thing up. At least it's all done virtually through online submission; my office is a mess of shifting piles of paper that submissions would have had every possibility to get lost in.
