Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Outreach

The Outreach Department of the Novels WikiProject is a centralized workarea for project recruitment and member interaction efforts. The major programs currently active are a monthly project newsletter and a welcoming message for new members of the project; additional ideas are always welcome, of course!
