I just started a series by writing a long article (8 minute read) and decided to split it.
So I found a natural transition point, wrote and ending/transition paragraph and cut the rest of the article to a new draft. Then wrote an intro reminding the reader where I had stopped in the prior post.
I haven't scheduled publication on it yet, but it's in the chute.
Out of curiosity, how long do you make your posts? I think Vincent may be a typical reader, so I try to keep them under 4 minutes.
Mine are way too long 😅. And the more I publish, the longer they get. I had some successes on long articles, but it is starting to get out of hand, hence this discussion.
I don't write that much, so probably in two weeks.
If you are looking at more than a 10 minutes read and expect the user to
follow along or the material is dense, I would suggest splitting it into a series. Even two parts is a series.

How do you plan to schedule, once a week?
