TimeStorm's Third Newsletter

Featuring Orphans, Widows, and Digital Nomad Visas

Hello Ruth,

I really appreciate that you're reading this third newsletter from TimeStorm Communications. I'm sure you get many newsletters. I know I do.

My goal is to deliver information you can read quickly. I've seen plenty of long lists of how-tos and what-to-dos. I'm trying a different way to deliver information in smaller chunks people might be more likely to remember.

Many thanks to friends and colleagues who've already shared this newsletter and the website link. TimeStorm Communications is all about supporting businesses and entrepreneurs with content support that reads well and uses SEO techniques to help people find them.

Writing Tips

I know it sounds Dickensian to say this, but you should really try to avoid orphan and widow lines in your content.

Orphan lines are lines where there's just one word left on its own (hence, the word "orphan").
Widow lines are the last lines of a paragraph that appear on the following page or column.

Widow lines in particular can be distracting to readers. A little bit of editing can eliminate them and orphan lines.
