Headline writing shenanigans
I served time as a sub editor at a daily rag on the south coast, the following is probably (and sadly) one of my proudest moments there.

Putting together one of the "community" pages I was sifting through the announcements and found one for the local WI group. They were to have a slideshow on the flora and fauna of the Greek islands, including Kefalonia, Lesbos and Xanthe.

Dull afternoon infinitely improved by use of "Lesbos Exposed" as headline.

Couldn't count how many times I and others used the headline "Get a semi in xxxx" in the property section, but it didn't offer the same degree of satisfaction somehow.

I'd miss it if working from home wasn't so frickin' awesome!
