Christopher's Bio
Hi. I am 23 years old and have just completed my fourth and final year at the University of Durham, England where I achieved a 2:1 B.A degree in French, Spanish and Catalan.
Having done work experience as a write for a local newspaper recently, I am due to start a full-time NCTJ newspaper course in Wimbledon, during which time I hope to learn a lot about my skills, my writing and my career of choice.
After this, I have hopes of becoming an outstanding sports, food or travel writer at The Independent, The Guardian or another prestigious national newspaper or broadcasting corporation either in England or in Europe.
Please feel free to leave your thoughts, whether positive or negative, on my profile or under my articles - especially if you disagree with something I have typed. .

Hey Christopher,
I've written an article about Liverpool with religious connections as it is Easter Sunday. Now, I'm not the most religious guy on this earth, as you may have guessed, so I'm not sure how it has come out! I would appreciate your thoughts and views on it as I'm not convinced it came out as well as I had planned!

Hey Christopher!
Here's how the writer rankings work: http://bleacherreport.com/writer_rankings
Here are some ways to increase your readership/best climb the rankings:
http://blog.bleacherreport.com/2007/12/11/how-to-get-your-articles-on-the-front-page/
http://blog.bleacherreport.com/2008/10/01/a-proven-method-for-improving-your-bleacher-report-readership/
In terms of falling off the list: If you go seven or more days without EITHER writing an article OR logging into Bleacher Report, you will fall off of the Top Writers list temporarily.
That said, as soon as you log back in/write another article, you'll jump right back up to where you belong.
In other words, there is no long-term harm done to your exposure for inactivity, just short term.
Let me know if you have further questions. Keep up the great work!

Chris, feel free to post your opinions in the comment section of the article. As per your changes, I have to say that BR style guidelines ask for em—dashes as opposed to hyphens when separating clauses. Take care

Ha, well that clears that up then!
You twisted my arm on the POTD — I really am far too stingy with my picks and always forget to hand them out. A bit of iambic pentameter certainly should deserve the nod!
