# Create your first curated issue

When you create a new curated newsletter, FeedOtter will auto-create the first Issue for you.

You can either edit this issue or start a new one.

In the email editor, make sure you're in the **Content** tab on the left sidebar menu, and then click on the **Add Content** button. This will open a panel displaying the available content from your content sources.

When you select a source, content from that source will appear below the dropdown. Click on any of the boxes to add the content to your newsletter.
