So just finished coding this baby up with the front-end stuff, and now we're going to start pushing with the Wordpress backend and we'll be on our way! Don't forgot to hit that heart button!
Looks super clean and I like the type! I would make the text area less wide, it will be much faster to read. The ideal reading width is about 50-75 characters or about 12-13 words. Just my two cents.
Definitely agree with @Cole Townsend, although its EASIER for us to read longer sentences, we don't like to and will typically choose to not read it if the sentences aren't shorter.
Completely agree with @Cole, and @Cat here. I would also suggest making the font-weight a bit thicker, perhaps 200. I've found that it is much easier to read over extended periods of time, or when writing an article. Take the Kindles or Nooks for example, personally owning a Kindle, I can definitely attest to its superiority in reading because of this.
Also, is the banging headline really necessary? Too juvenile, bro.
Just my 2 shillings.
@Patrick Rogan Thanks my friend. Very helpful and constructive. I'll be hoping on these changes asap. Gotta love constructive feedback. "Banging it out" in the completely useful sense of the term (i.e. banging - hitting - my keyboard keys to type this code out)

@Cole Townsend Thanks man. I am considering that...the main idea is to keep a focus on the article, but I do know what your saying.
