Fatigue. Repulsion. Disinterest. Confusion. Those are some of the emotions that come to mind, when I see a thread or post that includes page-loads of text, page-length paragraphs, and no italics or bold text, or other markings, whatsoever. So, here are some useful tips I've learned throughout the years, browsing the majestic internet. Each makes discussions and information sharing more accessible and appealing. 1. Keep paragraphs short. As short as possible! Each paragraph relays an idea; if the idea requires more than four or five sentences, then split it. It probably already leaked towards another idea, or sub-idea, as it is. Don't be ashamed of one or two phrase paragraphs! 2. Don't answer yourself in the same post. In other words, if you feel that you've continued writing into your own response (of the idea you started writing about, in the same post), then it makes sense to simply get to the point. Only write the response, or final idea. Your approach can be cleared, if necessary, later on. 3. Draw your text. Especially, if it is rather long, or feels complicated, even a bit. What do I mean? Use italics, bold, underlines, different fonts, different sizes, and even different colors! Each can be used to emphasize or de-emphasize an idea. You want others to read your text, as they would hear it, as if you were speaking it aloud. Also, you want them to notice some things, more than others, naturally. 4. And finally, keep each post short! Yes, even though you can/could/would/might/want to say more, you need to deserve the effort of your readers, first! After you write anything, go over it, and try to keep it as simple and short, as you literararily (mind the pun) can. If Stefan's daughter can't/won't get it, neither will anyone else. Cheers.
