I used to have a section in my newsletter for this sort of thing called T-Rex. I did only a few issues before I stopped. It was a lot of work, and while people said they liked them, they just weren't performing very well and took a lot of time away from writing.
So I guess you could say I like the idea of them, but as a rule, I just skip them.
I like occasional link salad, but unlike my lunch salads, I try to limit the ingredient list to 5 or so. And I like what Matt Bell said.
5 I think is a solid decision. Some can get overwhelming.
I so feel this, they can really be hit or miss for me! There are some I read, but most I ignore. I'm glad mine have been interesting though! 🥰

I love the name T-Rex for that though!
Thanks 😊 I thought it was mildly clever 😏😄 I still use it for one off reviews.
I love this too--and thanks so much for what you wrote about my commonplacing posts, love to know that readers find something valuable in them. 💜
Love yours and your excellent taste in poems!
No to link salads! They make my eyes glaze over, and I'd much rather read one well-written article.
That is def how I used to be, but I’ve gotten more into them lately.
I love this. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! And love your advice! So good to remember to keep the audience in mind and to know them.
