Comment to this post for inclusion in Despatches

A few things to note:

This is the reader for the Age of Sail newsletter Despatches - which will try to mirror what Despatches on LJ does. It will not mirror content unless that same content is posted here.

This journal will subscribe to you, or watch your comm. You should not grant access to this journal, so that I do not link to anything posted locked. (There is nothing more annoying than following a link and finding that you don't have access to the entry linked to.)

Single drabbles or icon batches containing fewer than 10 icons will not be linked to vis Despatches. This may seem harsh, especially in the first days, but there has to be some sort of cut-off point.

I hope to do as fine a job as all the editors for the LJ version have done. I do not wish to step on any toes by creating this DW edition - I am doing it because I want to see more AoS content produced here on DW, and I feel there is, or will be, a need for a newsletter of the calibre of Despatches.

It needed to be here! Did you want the reader to track you for AoS goodies? Or were you just dropping a (very!) nice comment? :D

Sorry, was asking for despatch_reader to track me, yes. Thanks!

How about tracking [community profile] regency_romance, if you aren't already?

It's extremely rare that I post anything AoS-related in my personal journal, but you're welcome to track me if you want.

Hello, I've just relocated and I haven't figured out where Hornblower 'lives' around here yet, so I thought I'd comment... I've posted a couple of stories in my journal and there should be more to come - my humble contribution to getting more AoS stuff on DW :)

Thanks for setting this up - a great idea and very useful!

Duly added. Hornblower doesn't have a 'home' over here as yet, though you might like to check out [community profile] age_of_sail - stuff does crop up there every now and then.

(Also, hope you don't mind if I add you with my own personal journal - there can never be too many AoS fans on one's list. :D )

Hello. If [community profile] despatches is still operational, could you track me? I've recently uploaded a number of new Hornblower stories to AO3, not to mention podfics. I posted a general link to my AO3 works yesterday, mentioning new stories, but I'm happy to give you a list of tidy links to individual stories with pairings, ratings, etc., if you like.
