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.
Mod Note: It is with a slightly heavy heart that I announce this is the last issue of firefly-signal that I will be publishing. It's been a good run, but after 5 1/2 years, it's time for me to move on. But at least the fandom has shiny new products on the way, so don't forget to watch for comics, board games, apps and more!
For those who would like links to the off LJ sites that have been used through the years, check this entry on the watch community. And you can always check the watch community friends list for the various LJ comms we've followed. And, of course, Whedonesque is a really good place to watch for news of upcoming products and such.
Thanks for all your support through the years. Browncoats are the best! Stay shiny!
