I see so many comments online that are just a wall of text I don’t want to read. Organizing it into paragraphs makes it significantly easier for the reader to digest, and can help the writer organize their thoughts.

Each paragraph should start with a topic sentence. Each sentence after that can clarify, or build on that sentence. When you move to a slightly different topic, start a new paragraph.

I am no great writer, but I TRY. I think about how people might consume it. I know I could write better, so please put your red pens down. This is just a reminder about the basics.

There might be great insights in an 800 word stream of consciousness text block, but if they haven’t taken the time to organize it I’m not going to take the time to read it.
