On Returning Carriages

In the process of setting up my first post, I discovered something. Blogs make paragraphs a pain in the ass, pardon my language. In case there's anyone else in the blogging world who just wants some good, old-fashioned paragraphs in their posts, here's the quick and dirty:

1. Find the place that allows you to edit the Html text on your post.

2. Where you want to start a paragraph, type "open angle bracket p close angle bracket"

3. Where you want to end a paragraph, type "open angle bracket forward slash p close angle bracket"

4. Repeat this for each paragraph section.

Type the characters named above, not the words. That's another beauty of Html--apparently I can't type the instructions without causing bizarre paragraph breaks. I also don't know how the various Html tags interact with one another, so you might have to fiddle with things a bit. Here's my source for the solution: HTML Basics
