AboutA newsletter for Age of Sail fandom happenings.
Fandoms that fall within the bounds of this community:
* 18th-19th century naval/seafaring fandoms (Pirates of the Caribbean, Hornblower, Aubrey-Maturin, Temeraire, etc)
* 18th-19th century military fandoms (eg. Sharpe)
* 18th-19th century civilian fandoms (eg. Jane Austen, Les Mis, historical RPF) at the discretion of the moderators
Topics which will be reported on:
* Age of Sail fanfic, fanart, vids, and other creative endeavors
* Relevant fannish meta and discussions
* Community news and challenges
* Items of historical interest related to Age of Sail
Notes:
1. Posts will only be reported if they are current, i.e. if they have happened since the last despatch. At the moderators' discretion, articles may be posted which should have gone in the previous issue, but only if they are of particular interest.
2. Fanfic will be subject to moderator discretion on the basis of length, lack of header info, etc. We try to be inclusive and consistent in our application of our policies, and there are no judgements made on the quality of any of the fics we link to.
3. Icon posts are only linked if there are more than 10 icons in the post. Multi-fandom posts that are not exclusively Age of Sail are only linked if the number of AoS icons in the post is large (at moderator discretion). Right now we are not linking Pirates of the Caribbean icons; check![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
potcicons and elite_pirates for all your PotC icon needs.
4. Strong preference will be given to links on LJ; the primary exception to this is news articles and other such items of historical interest.
5. Want to know why your post wasn't in the latest newsletter? Read this post, which explains the policies in even more excruciating detail.
The editors watch a number of AoS and related communities for news and announcements, but if you have anything you think we might miss, feel free to post a comment at any time linking to a relevant post. The reading list for this newsletter is at![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
