This is an old post but still good information.  One of the reasons I stay active on the Rain.  I wish the original author was still active.  Hint, Hint.

Twitter logoDon’t spend 140 characters teasing a subject on Twitter and then 140 paragraphs before you get to the point when the viewer clicks your link.

I’ve been seeing a lot of links to bloated writing lately. Stop!

Don’t tell jokes, anecdotes, unrelated opinions, etc. before getting to the point. Keep it short and direct to the subject or you’ll loose your viewer.

Make your point first, then you can expand on the subject with the other stuff.

Enough said.

This also lends itself to blogs...most readers get bored after a couple hundred words nd don't finish the blog
