Newsletter Sponsorship¶
Write the Docs is a community focused on all things related to software documentation. Our newsletter is a monthly update for all the folks in our community. Sponsorship of the newsletter does two things:
- It allows us to cover the cost of producing the newsletter for our community
- It allows you to get your name and message in front of our audience of Documentarians
You can see our newsletter archives to get a better idea of the content that we produce.
