Strypey (strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz)'s status on Saturday, 24-Aug-2024 18:05:31 JST Strypey After years of posting here, I've learned to make both my sentences and paragraphs as short as I can ; ) Re-reading my old blog posts, I'm struck by the epic length of both.
Why on Earth did I make them so long? I suspect it was caused by a couple of years writing university assignments. Where there's a tension between including as much information as possible, and staying within the word limit. Maybe longer sentences reduce the need for joining words that count against that limit?
