Lucianne.com links to a David Solway screed whining about the current trend to write short paragraphs, some as short as one sentence. I’ll admit I find single sentence paragraphs do have a Power Point feel, but I often write paragraphs of 2-3 sentences.
My intent is to keep the eye bouncing right along and the tone lighter than that associated with long, turgid paragraphs. I don’t want reading my little essays to be hard work.
