Test for Newsletter
## Example Newsletter Article##
This is a example of how to create an article for the Rural Reader Newsletter using [StackEdit.io](http://stackedit.io/editor) and Markdown.
StackEdit.io is an online editor that allows you to quickly create web documents. StackEdit.io provides a simple, easy interface for [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/), a document markup language used to create html from plain text.
The beauty of StackEdit.io is you don't have to learn much about Markdown at all. You can use it just like Microsoft Word:
1. Enter your text in the window on the left
2. Use the buttons at the top to format your text
3. Preview the completed page on the right
Once you're finished editing your article, you can export or share the Markdown down file for approval. And then the real magic comes in! Once the article is complete, it can be directly imported into the Rural Reader website with no adjustments or reformatting!
You get to format the article how you want and that will translate directly to the newsletter. This preserves your original design and saves time and effort in preparing the newsletter for publication.
If you have any questions, please reach out to [Damien](mailto:damien.storm@orasi.com). Thanks!
