Blog Post Writing
My purpose in writing these articles is to expose the absurdities that we are subjected to by prejudice, opinion, ‘junk science’ and the law.
I hope that I am not boring my readers with the length of the articles.
Some of the text contains as many as a 1000 words.
Bob Walsh recommends in his outstanding book, “Clear Blogging: How People Blogging Are Changing the World and How You Can Join Them”, on page 193, that postings should be kept to about 250 words.
A number of years ago I was free-lance writing for a local newspaper and my goal was to keep the articles to 500 words.
I hope that my readers have an attention span of at least 700 words before they fall asleep or move onto someone else’s posting.
I feel that most of the subjects that I write about cannot be written in fewer words and still cover the salient points.
I try not to ‘pad’ my writing with unnecessary adjectives.
Hang in there friends, I have a lot to say!
