The Dark Voice
The New Direction of the Dark Voice
Dark Voice Editor-in-Chief, Derev Niroth
Address from the Editor-in-Chief, Derev Niroth
[OOC] Since my appointment as Tribune of the Dark Voice, there has been frankly a ton of stuff going on. At times, I've wondered if I bit off a little more then I could handle, perhaps I'd made one too many commitments to better the Dark Voice. Now, however, seeing my first issue of the Dark Voice complete, I do not think that is so.
As many of you no doubt noticed, the Dark Voice doesn't resemble what the last issue you may have saw looked like. Next month, I hope to present a truly different layout for the Dark Voice. This month, what I've presented to you is strictly a “transitional” issue. Within this transition, however, you will see many things that are here to stay. Nearly every article has been presented to you in-character (and in fact, every article henceforth from this issue will be in-character). You don't see random graphics and stories that fail to tie into the Dark Voice in anyway.
You've no doubt noticed this might resemble a “magazine” or a “newspaper”. In fact, that is the direction we are going towards. The final product when it is delivered may not “look” like a newspaper, but the way we present the content, the stories, and the articles, is.
Right now, volunteers from several Clans of the Brotherhood, as well as the dedicated members of the Dark Voice staff are participating in a “Think Tank”, that is shaping the future direction of the Dark Voice. Many good ideas have come from this, and many more are still to come as the pressure of this issue is off of us, and we can direct our energy on that which we are discussing.
That being said, I hope all of you enjoy this issue of the Dark Voice. It may not be quite what you are used too, but you may find some things here that you haven't known yet about the Brotherhood. Maybe you'll actually learn something, maybe you won't. If anyone reading this issue feels they have some comment, concern, or an idea to better the Dark Voice, I would welcome your comments. You can find my email address on my dossier. A great many people poured a great many hours into this edition of the Dark Voice, and once again, I hope you all enjoy it.
See you in the next issue!
