Welcome :)
New contributors are encouraged to hang out in IRC where we coordinate activity and hold meetings about various parts of Fedora.
Some good channels to join on Freenode for onboarding generally include:
#fedora-join
#fedora-commops
For writing and documentation, you should also join:
#fedora-docs
#fedora-mktg
Tonight at 5pm ET there will be an editorial meeting for Fedora Magazine, which I know is always looking for authors and contributing writers. For details on that meeting and any others, you can check our various team calendars on Fedocal: http://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar
If you have questions, my nick is decause (though I'm travelling today and may not be able to respond immediately.)
Looking Forward,
--RemyD.

Fedora Docs is a group of all volunteer writers, we all have jobs, and
families and many other responsibilities. Of course we want new
writers, but we don't always get back to introduction emails quickly,
and yes we do miss some of them.
Also, please feel free to reply to the introduction emails and welcome
others yourself. It is not a task that a specific person is
responsible for.
