There's lots of writing advice out there. How do you know what's good advice and what's just opinionated ranting? https://scientistseessquirrel.wordpress.com/2024/12/03/what-does-good-writing-advice-look-like/

I always tell my students rather jokingly “For goodness sake make it interesting”. I have come to think it is not a bad strategy.

And we actually have evidence to support this! (Based on humour in titles). So while not long ago this might have been "opinionated ranting", it's evidence-based advice now!🙂

@realstirfryguy.bsky.social check to see that Stephen is in NB BlueSky feed :)

Ooh, there's an NB BlueSky feed??

realstirfryguy.bsky.social•86 days ago

There is and you are now on it. You can use the list to find mutuals to follow from previous social media or you can use it as a feed to see what all the folks who are on the list are posting about(or both!). Welcome.

Thanks, John! I found it and pinned the feed. Thanks for putting it together.

realstirfryguy.bsky.social•86 days ago

It is my main feed. The one I start the day in and the last one I look at before I log off. Hope you love it!

Me too
