Is quite the thankless job. Just looked over the last one we put out and realized that the article on how to train a youth goalie was for hockey. Nothing generates quality journalism like working late and night on a tight deadline. I think that's why it has been so long since the last one - but still two years more recent than Canada
But neither the last Canadian or USA Zone had any recipes for Kanga jerky. I'm sure that this is the real reason for their downfall.
My best suggestion to be successful -
1) Line up a small number of contributors who will consistently write articles and don't try to keep it running with only two (or one) contributor. As passions wane or life gets busy The Zone becomes a lesser priority.
2)Find a stable platform for hosting your images (unless things have changed and you no longer need to save off site and then paste links to them).
