Talking about trans people in the past

Never knowingly misgender or deadname a trans person posthumously (in an obituary, etc.).

This is extremely disrespectful! Even if the person lived openly as trans.

If someone’s identity is unclear, note that fact.

Karen, I'd love to be at #ACES2024, but it depends on my work schedule. I can't wait to see the Conscious Style Guide in hardcover!

If want to purchase my book before the end of the conference, stop by the CMoS table at lunch. I will be there to sign books!

The booth needs to be packed up by 3:45 pm. After that, you'll need to purchase it online.

What about "the" with a publication, like The New York TImes? Cap it when it's part of the formal title.

The New Yorker

Of course, most of my client publishers have their own rules on ellipses dots: Ignore CMOS; follow CMOS; use spaces; nonbreaking spaces; 3 dots only; 3 or 4 dots, depending on context; ellipsis character ... #ACES2024

New in CMOS: No more spaces between dots in the ellipsis. #ACES2024.

Don't limit coverage of large-bodied people to stories about obesity. Include them in all stories and in photos.

It was a dictionary of Latin words with Latin definitions but later editions included the words in other languages. Calepino's dictionary became the Webster's of its day.

Lead the reader through the story. Use axioms to break up content and help the reader along.

Context—why you should care
Big picture—what's the larger story
Thought bubbles from others

Sample axioms:
What's next
The bottom line
The big picture
By the numbers
Between the lines
