Crab Paper

Resubmit somewhere else - all Wiley journals I’ve submitted it to have returned it and said it wasn’t a good fit.

Chapter 1

I resubmitted it to the journal (Wiley Ecology and Evolution) on Aug 25th… so hopefully that’s all done with no more tasks. TBD.

Chapter 2 - Multispecies

Have a draft of the paper done by mid-September to share with Drew and Steven for review.
