Beginning in April, I hope to begin posting new and forthcoming works each month by Cocoon contributors. The Brains Blog I contribute to does this each month, and I think it is great way to highlight new works by contributors. I'm thinking the Cocoon would be a great forum for this, especially given that our contributors are early-career folk. We work hard on our research, and, I take it, nobody (to borrow from Hume) wants to see their stuff fall stillborn from the presses. So, I thought, why not publicize them? Anyway, keep an eye out in April!

Marcus, this is a great idea. Since I myself coordinate a group blog, may I ask you a further question? How do you gather the information you need? Do you expect contributors to send you titles and/or pdfs? Or do you check on PhilPapers? Or…?

Hi Elisa: Thanks! Basically, I just “follow” everyone on philpapers. If they post something during the month, I’ll be notified. Then, at the end of the month, I can announce them all and link to them here (as well as issue a call for any omissions).
