Welcome to firefly_signal, wherein we hope to link fan activity and news from across the fandom in one location. We hope you find this newsletter useful and spread the word.
Spoiler Policy: As a newsletter, it is our desire to let our readers know where they can next follow any of the talent, both behind and in front of the cameras, from our beloved 'verse as they continue their careers. In light of that, we will continue - as we have since the beginning - to name shows and/or movies in which they become involved. If the news of that involvement entails more than said title, we will do our best to mark the information with a spoiler warning. We thank you for your understanding and continued readership and know you join us in wishing the cast and crew the best of luck in their continuing careers.
