000b. Editorial Guidelines

[thisweekmod]

Hello all! Wow, this has been some week. The newsletter opened on Sunday 1/20/19, and as of today, Thursday 1/24/19, there are 443 subscribers. That's like 100 new subs a day! Thank you all so much for your interest in the newsletter; I hope we'll have many, many posts filled with interesting links for the next [insert length of time here]. ♥

Having said that, I took some time over the last two/three days and developed these newsletter guidelines. I'd always meant to flesh out the guiding principles of the newsletter, but let my enthusiasm get ahead of me and just went for newsletter creation without being 100% sure about the rest. There were also some concerns brought up in the FAQ post which I wanted to respond to.

This is mostly finished to a point I am happy with. There are a few things I'm still wondering about and I'm sure some of you will be able to see if there's anything missing, but I wanted to get this out before doing the next issue. So, here it is!
