RE: The Chuck Wagon: A Spot of Comfort on the Trail.

in #history6 years ago

wow @glenalbrethsen now you make me wonder if I'd doing enough writing, like my post today about the Chuck wagon, I have no idea how many words that is, is there an app or something that tells you or does Steemit tell you somewhere?
maybe mine are too short, I thought the one today was a little short.
I think your's are about right, some people's go on forever, can I name names? I guess it doesn't matter.
your's are maximum for a redneck, lets put it that way!

Sort:  

No, Steemit doesn't have a word counter. That would be nice. I'm more or less eyeballing it, but there are sites on the web that you can paste your post into to see word count length. Or Word or some other text editor on your computer could do it (Word for sure).

I thought the length of the article was just fine. Really, you want to cover the subject with the information you have, and overdoing can be worse than not having any information at all, so I think you covered the subject well.

Another thing is style. If the post is compelling, people will read more. If it's not, length wouldn't matter anyway.

So, there's always more to consider, but it's not just rednecks that might have issues with attention spans. :)

ok Glen, thanks for all your help and advice!
