Updates are collected by emailing the company earlier in the week and incorporating folk's announcements as you receive them. Depending on the message, you may wish to simplify or truncate messages and keep them anonymous rather than naming who sent them. Use your discretion. The current month's updater and next month's updater should touch base with each other to decide when to transition to the following month (i.e. if a month ends in the middle of the week, decide which one of you will finish out the last update for the month). You should find yourself sending out about 4 updates a month.
