24. Editing
Chunking
Keep paragraphs short. Follow the rule of
• Three sentences in a paragraph.
• Three paragraphs under one heading.
Bullets and numbered
lists
When people want to consume information
quickly, lists and bullets are helpful.
Check it with a partner
Have someone to bounce your Publishing post off
as a sanity check.
Add ‘break outs’ to guide
readers through your content
Presenting hunks of seemingly endless text turns
readers away, but bold text helps guide the eye
and break up long content passages into more
digestible bites.

channels
