@GracieGirl I range between 1000-2000-ish. And everyone else has very good reasons. XD

@GracieGirl I think right around 1000-1500 is good, though like Daeus and Brandon mentioned, it depends on what you’re blogging about. I do inspirational/writing-themed posts and keep them right around that length 🙂

I think the key is to keep it easy to read with relatively short paragraphs, fonts that aren’t too small, headings, and sometimes…[Read more]

@GracieGirl *peers in* *looks around* What everyone else is saying, I think. One of the large things it to make it easily readable, whatever the length. So lots of paragraph breaks and section breaks with headings and such.

@Graciegirl I did once publish a 14,000 word post. . . never done that again. . . but I don’t worry that mine average at about 1,500. As others have said, it’s the content — I tend to write about deep sorts of things, and I don’t want to do the subjects a disservice by skimping or being superficial.

As to the advice to suit the length of your…[Read more]

@GracieGirl I actually researched this once, and the general consensus was that 1,000 words is a good length. However, like @Daeus said, this is largely dependent upon the subject matter. KP and K.M. Wieland can get away with longer posts because they’re more like articles. Short stories work as long posts too, but when I write small snippets…[Read more]

@graciegirl I’ve heard it’s best to keep blogposts short because people have such short attention spans nowadays and don’t have time to read lengthy posts. I usually try to keep mine under a thousand words. If the post seems too long maybe you could make it a two-parter (that’s what I do). I’m looking forward to seeing your blog! What kind of…[Read more]

Thank you so much everyone!!!! These are great ideas. @daeus I absolutely love the idea of writing form the plant’s POV. I may have to use that throughout the story, because I have no idea how many times I’ve looked at a plant and thought, “I wonder what’s going on inside their head.” Just kidding. Kinda. XD @that_writer_girl_99 That is a really…[Read more]

Any other ideas? I’m not coming up with anything that’s clicking.

Hello, @graciegirl @lifeofkatie @dragon-watcher !
Glad to see you!

Yes. Yes. I agree with @graciegirl.

@graciegirl Hi and thank you! 🙂

I’m on for a while. A while… … …
*heroically*
Don’t make me do this alone! Fight! Fight with me! Conquer bad literature!

Thank you for all your prayers…
My little sister is here!!!
So, Mom had to do a c-section. Gladys had a little trouble breathing at first, but she was fine afterwards. She’s still in the NICU though.
Mom also had a lot of bleeding, and they did surgery to stop that, but she is also stable and recovering fine.
Please keep praying for our…[Read more]

Hey everyone! Thanks for praying for my mom and the baby.
So, we’re at the hospital right now, and Mom is having a c-section. Baby Gladys would not turn properly, and so they went ahead with the surgery.
Please pray it all goes well; I should see my baby sister in a few hours!

I took some game designing courses on Youth Digital, and now they’re having a contest just for their students to make a project and a commercial for it. I just entered with a commercial for my current WIP, Spy Star, and what they’re going to do is first, some people from Youth Digital are going to pick the top five commercials entered in the…[Read more]

*insert obligatory lament for barely writing the past few weeks* Anyhoo, I’m here to fix that. Anybody else care to join me?

So, I have a new baby sister that was due to arrive very early September.
Unfortunately, she is lying sideways, and that is bad.
On Friday, Mom, Dad, and I are going to the hospital, and they are going to attempt to turn the baby.
If that is successful, then Mom will just have a natural birth.
If it isn’t successful, then she needs to have a…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy @his-instrument @graciegirl @hope @winter-rose Wanted to see if there were any last thoughts on this.

Ok, that was a lot of cut-and-pasting. *wipes brow* I’ll tag some folks, and I’m going to miss some, so I apologize in advance to them.
@Christi-eaton @kate-flournoy @ethryndal @shannon @Emily @winter-rose @that_writer_girl_99 @graciegirl (Help, I’m running out of tags!) @catwing @CK4always And Hannah, I forgot your tag! I will have to get your…[Read more]
