Does anyone have some good advice/course/method for writing blog posts?

Other than 'write often'?

Problem with Google Search is that blogs of SEOd the shit out of that question.

@koos what's your main problem? What kind of issue are you trying to figure out? The creative/inspiration? The regularity? The storytelling part? The procrastination part? The hate-myself part?

@jsavalle I have a lot of ideas, but once I start writing, posts get massive and I can't finish them. I have no methods or training, but I figured that if there are templates for detective novels, they must be there for blog posts!

@koos Is the new stuff you learn strictly necessary for the current post? If it gets out of hand, could you break the post up into a series?

@jsrn I guess there is no way to know while I am learning :-)

Generally I think it's a good way to keep it short of course.

@koos personally the way I deal with this is (bc I am running in to this problem once in a while) is to try to break it down into smaller publishable articles - and the later one to gather them again into a big one.
