EOI: Let's create a SANE Forums Newsletter!!!

[Ru-bee]

That sounds really interesting @The-red-centaur! One challenge might be the word limits for the newsletter, we're testing out have a guide of 150 words, with a max of 200 per piece (less is okay too!), especially because with this first newsletter we've got so many members wanting to contribute! I know I struggle to keep things concise sometimes, especially with topics I'm interested in! But if you want to give it go that sounds like it could be great!

@rav3n @Ru-bee 

Things to do with pets catches my eye.

would like to help with that, if possible.

would like to know more about what would be involved

Being involved with newsletter might provide a positive to help me deal better with mix of physical pain and MH issues

yayyy keen to have ya join the working group @Patches59 💙

we do have some members who have put their hand up for the pet section already so we may ask for your help with another topic, if that's okay? we'll send you an email now that will explain what to expect, then we can chat more about topics. excited to have you on board!!

One thing that we're going to need everyone's help with is choosing a name for the newsletter! Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi @rav3n - what is the format of newsletter? It is a pdf?

I could possibly submit a photo that people have to guess what is the subject of photo. It’s not really recovery focused though.

[rav3n]

the format hasn't been confirmed yet, but i think it's most likely going to be a pdf @Till23 could you explain the photo idea a bit more, sounds really interesting! 

also with photos it will have to be your own photo/work or AI generated images as we don't want to risk copy-right related issues. 

[Till23]

Hi @rav3n it would be my own photos.

It would be an angle or close-up or whatever that means the subject is not obvious and people would need to work out what it is - it would just be a bit of a possibly fun distraction.

It’s not really recovery focused though.

It’s something I can do quickly, so would have a couple ready to go for first edition.

[rav3n]

that sounds fun!! a nice lil distraction for sure @Till23 i'll add you into the working group and send you an email with more info now 😊

Hi Heartful here,

I'd like to help out, especially if there is time put aside for support. 

Helping identify useful threads that exist for select topics is something i'd be interested in.  I'm only new to contributing....Be gentle!

Let me know options for helping if that suits the newsletter coordinators!

Thanks, 

Heartful. 😃

Lighter health topics are ok!
