As you have likely noticed lately I’m writing very short pieces on a fairly broad range of topics with great frequency. For the why-behind-the-what (at least at the time); here is a piece I did earlier this year. But the more I think about it I believe in my heart of hearts that people rarely read full pieces anymore. Even when they read books they don’t read the entire book. They don’t blogs word-for-word. Nor, believe it or not, they don’t even read tweets to the end.
Easy Reading
Easy is the theme of the week. Despite the under-current of the mindful movement – people don’t have time, they don’t make time or they don’t care to put the effort into long form reading anymore. It’s a shame but it’s true.
Results
I have seen my daily stats go up threefold since the beginning of the year. Now I realize that is in part to the frequency with which I am posting. But take that out of the equation and I’m still up over last year at this time. I think that is in part because people know that I’m writing very brief pieces so they will take the time to actually read them.
