su_herald | Thanks to nondenomifan and thenewbuzwuzz, and a call for volunteers!

Our floating backup editor

nondenomifan helped us get through a busy summer, and is moving on. And former chief editor and now regular Sunday editor

thenewbuzwuzz is looking to retire from editing sometime soon. Many thanks to both of them!

This means we are looking for someone to step in as Sunday editor or potentially take another day of the week. (Other good options right now are Monday or Wednesday.)

Being a Herald editor means making one newsletter post a week. After some training and a few test posts, it will generally take roughly 2-4 hours (once a week) depending on one's level of perfectionism. Most of the potential links come to us pre-gathered in one tidy Dreamwidth reading page. You'll also have help with turning the day's selection of links into a formatted list: you can either paste everything into our HTML template that already contains all the formatting tags, or use some alternative tools (including the fabled Pinboard!) that will do part of the pasting and sorting for you. We're happy to explain and show how everything works from the ground up. :)

If once a week sounds like a bit too much, we are also open to training a new floating backup editor, and a new tumblr-only volunteer. (Tumblr-only volunteers help by reblogging things on a particular day to the sunnydale-digest.)

To find out more, feel free to contact me (burnhername) by commenting on this post. Or you can reach out via email at sunnydaleherald@gmail.com. You can also send sunnydaleherald an ask on tumblr.

Being an editor means being a part of a long tradition of supporting the Buffyverse fandom. The Sunnydale Herald is one of the longest running fandom newsletters, publishing on various sites since 2004! It would be awesome to hear from you, and you won't have to commit to anything until you're sure!
