P.S. A Column On Things

Words, Words, 750 Words

January 26, 2025

The length of most syndicated columns is 750 words. It is also the length of the average PSaCOT over the last two months. I decided  I don’t want my weekly output to be tl;dr, so I am shooting for 750.

With the occasional exception of a special issue or an annual column, if a column is more than 750 words long, something will be cut. That will show me. Or maybe not.
