Optimize headlines w/ the "Mullet Method" 2 keyword kicker, colon, then details. Editorial business in the front, party in the back #aceswsu

When crafting impactful ledes, don't begin with the follow through. The power is in the subject and verb. #journalism #aceswsu #acesworkshop

My favorite piece of advice is "don't use a $20 word when a $0.10 word will do." #ACESBootCamp #aceswsu
