Copyblogger: Tips on Writing Paragraphs

How do you write a paragraph? Google gives you 17.6 million hits to sift through for the answer. I'll point you to one option. 

Jon Morrow, assistant editor of Copyblogger, wants you to write better paragraphs. A Guy named Kawasaki, a two-headed baby, an echo, a monotone and ramps can help. His post, The Art of the Paragraph explains, in artful paragraphs, of course. 

Addressing copywriters and online writers, his suggestions lean towards a shorter style of writing since online readers are generally looking for smaller bits of information. If you're an author in another medium, take note of that. Adjust your style to your audience. (I won't create a two-headed baby about online reading negatively affecting offline reading habits.)

Take a minute to read Jon's post then go get your blog on.  

BTW, there are also some thoughtful comments after his post and plenty of food for thought about writing at Copyblogger.
