[magazine] Pitch: AWS for system administrators

[Diego R. Santos]

Hey guys,

I work at Amazon Web Services and want to write some articles about AWS for
system administrators that use Fedora.

I wrote a simple article about How to use the same SSH key pair in all AWS
regions using Fedora, please take a look and tell me what you think.

I like the idea. I think it could use another introductory paragraph
before dropping right in. As is, this seems like a better fit for our
upcoming (unicorn fantasy status right now, but someday soon!)
short-docs system than the magazine.

Also, I would like to point out that we have a "pitch" step in our
process before writing drafts.  Here is our process:

https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-an-article-for-the-fedora-magazine/

It's not awful to write ahead of the pitch, but we also want to
encourage new writers to meet up with us and discuss first.  Having
said that, I don't see any issue with this article; it's strongly and
concisely written!

Hello Paul and Matthew,

Thanks for the feed back, I will improve the introductory paragraph.

What do I need to do after this?

If you're able, drop it in "Pending Review" status.  If not, just let
us know here on the list or in IRC that you want it reviewed and we'll
do the next step. :-)
