Gracie's Bio

Hi, folks. I’m a graduate of Bard College with a BA in Creative Writing and Human Rights. Since graduating last year I've worked as a freelance editor on a bunch of crazy projects because I truly enjoy reading what others create. Working here at Bleacher Report as a staff editor and intern trainer has been rewarding, but more so a great deal of fun!

I grew up in rural Maine and because my loyalties have always fallen along regional lines, I just can't help but root for the Pats and Red Sox—it's in my blood. However, my work with Bleacher Report has me very much interested in the EPL. A whole new world of sports has come alive for me.

Additionally, I write for Orange Life (an arts and culture magazine), and my poems have appeared or are forthcoming in 2River, Caketrain, Fourteen Hills, elimae, and Openned.

Thanks, all, for writing as much as you do! You feed my need to read.

    never mind my previous question. ryan got back to me with the link to the headline section of the b/r style guide, which essentially matches the chicago manual of style's handling of headers and headlines.

    i have just grown more used to the ap style used by most major newspapers where only the first word and proper nouns are capitalized in the headline.

    so thanks for bringing this to my attention with your edit. i have changed all of my headlines to the chicago style now. not what i'm used to but consistent, and that's what matters. thanks again.

    thanks for the headline edit. i have, however, written to mary jo about this and she said it was up to me on that - most newspapers don't capitalize every word in the title for an article.

    i've written to zander about it as well. is there somewhere specific this is "mandated" by a b/r style guide? so far all i've heard from those i asked is that it has something to do with search engines, but as a search engine quality rater for google, i know that we human testers are taught to ignore case. whether that means their search engine rankings ignore case as well i'm not positive, but usually what they tell us is pretty close.

    thanks in advance for any further light you could shed on this.
