RE: On the Pepper Coast

in #africa6 years ago

@zorank featured your post in the Pay It Forward Curation Contest as one of their featured bloggers.

Your post is good and enjoyed the photos and reading a little about your story, but will say it's hard to read when without some breaks in the paragraphs. Consider adding a few more to make things easier for your readers. Also consider breaking it up with some headers, look at this post for what I mean formatting wise. Thoughts are broken up with bold headers this way and it's easier to follow along.

Think this will really help you gain more followers.

Good feedback - I added some paragraph breaks to improve the readability. Criticism only helps!

Criticism only helps!

Constructive Criticism only helps!

Ok, now I'm glad it was taken the right way!! I had noticed the difference in names before, but when you brother replied to me I missed it. Was rushing as usual...always doing more things at once then I should be.

I agree regarding paragraphs and headers! @jhimmel did you copy and paste this post in a way that deleted paragraphs?

Anyways, in more traditional formats, paragraphs tended to be longer... maybe 8-10 sentences. However, for online content like blogs and Steem posts, short is better. No shame in a 2 sentence paragraph here. I'd say 3 is the ideal, but obviously let the content dictate the breaks, not vice versa.

Glad that was received the way it was intended. Really hate dropping into someone's post and giving advice, but the content was solid and without proper presentation it's hard to keep people reading. Want to see people succeed here!

Haha. FYI @jhimmel@dhimmel (but we're brothers).

Sorry about that...your steemit names are so close and I was rushing.
