The case for making smaller things

On finding the useful part, and giving it room to breathe.

Example post — replace this Markdown file with your own writing.

This sample article shows how a short piece of writing fits into the portfolio. Replace this text with your own notes; the title, description, and date above also populate the homepage.

Start with the useful part

A post can be a small observation, a project note, or a question worth exploring. It does not need to be an essay to deserve a page.

  • Give the reader one clear idea.
  • Use headings when the subject changes.
  • Link to the work or sources that informed it.

A small page can give a useful idea room to breathe.

Make it your own

Edit this Markdown file, then set example: false when it contains your own writing. You can return to the portfolio’s writing section to explore the other sample.
