Hi, Jordan! As we lay out in the guidelines, we prefer potential new writers to send a draft via email so we can review them. (And not lose track of you!) But I just took a quick look at your profile, and since you seem to be a skilled writer, I'll go ahead and skip that step this time. I'm adding you, and you can feel free to submit a draft directly to the publication at any time.

But for anyone else seeing this, we really don't like to skip steps this way, because it tends to result in confusion and dropped communication. We have only a small volunteer staff, so we ask people to please take some pity on us and follow the steps outlined in the guidelines.
