Hey Charles! I feel like we're seeing each other all over the place now. 
;) Welcome to the Marketing team!

To get started writing a new Magazine article, we have a few pages that 
will help get you started with the process. Since you're already 
familiar with writing for the CommBlog, it's very similar, but there's a 
few extra steps.

First, read this page about the procedure for writing an article:

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

Second, logging into the Magazine is the exact same as the CommBlog, but 
just in case:

http://fedoramagazine.org/logging-into-fedora-magazine-with-fas/

The important thing to take note of in the process is writing new 
pitches for the Magazine. A pitch should be a very basic idea of your 
article, what you intend to cover, and that kind of thing. I have an 
outline of what a good pitch looks like - I just published now, 
hopefully Paul and Ryan don't mind if I put it out there. :)

Last thing to take note of, once you have your pitch finished, you can 
email the list with a link to your pitch, or you can try to attend our 
weekly IRC meeting every Thursday, 5:00pm US EST (10:00 UTC). It's great 
if you can attend the meetings, we'll be meeting next after Thanksgiving 
week!

Let us know if you have other questions. :) Welcome aboard!
