Opening Statement
My thanks to go Plembobria, the re-elected Delegate and Minister of Awesome, for entrusting me with this position. It was a pleasure to serve as the first and last Minister of Gameside Affairs and I wish you the best of fortune for the upcoming term. I am very happy to have been appointed as Minister of Communications and I know that I can get the best out of this ministry. I have many plans and ideas for The Northern Lights - all of which will be detailed in this statement.Management Staff
I have spoken with the following people and they have agreed to their positions.
Writing Staff
If you are interested in writing at all this term, please message me, FrozenTopHat or Tomb. Staff Writers are assigned a new article every single month, according to the list of articles we have in the queue. They do not have to be essays, but do have to have a good amount of content. Anything less than 300 words will not be accepted, unless approved by all three members of the management staff, and anything more than 800 words will have to be revised until it is shorter.
Editing Staff
The Editing Staff are normally part of the writing staff as well, and are tasked with ensuring that the article suits the requirements of the issue and that there are no mistakes, typos or grammatical errors. All drafted articles must be presented in the same place as the original so the Chief Editor can preview and compare.
TNL Schedule
- Publish four issues of The Northern Lights.
- Increase the number of staff writers and editors.
- Develop a dedicated and consistent work force.
- Represent the North Pacific as well and as truthfully as possible.
- Produce quality work across all issues.
I hope to introduce an official interview section to all of the articles, I've named it 'The Spotlight'. Every month, one member of the community will be interviewed on a topic of choice and the interview will be included in The Northern Lights. I'll host 'The Spotlight', and will run it every month. The CMS will assist in choosing the special guest.
I will also be in contact with the other ministers on collaborations and projects over the next few days.
