Hello my dears

As some of you know, I've been a bit under the weather lately (well. Few months, actually.) Luckily, I'm doing much better, but my batteries still haven't recharged enough to leave me with enough energy to get through basic life-things and also enjoy fun-things. despatches IS great fun, but like my own LJ, I'm just too drained at the moment ( Read more... )

There have been some questions over the years about why this or that link was not included in the newsletter, and occasionally I run across somebody believing that they've been slighted, and so I want to lay out once and for all the policies, and I can link to this from the profile page, and you all can understand how I go about this thing.
