MODERATORS
I find it helpful to break up the text into paragraphs where each paragraph is it's own talking point/topic. It seems easier to read, and easier to find information when re-reading.
Other things I've found helpful:
The follow-up paragraphs should not have any new information in them (e.g. date/time, locations of events, tasks to be done). They should be for clarification, so that only the first paragraph(s) need to be re-read to find all the important information.
This is just my experience. I am not an expert.
These days I'm highlighting one or two keywords per paragraph, so people who get scared by my extensive writing get to have some non-scary starting points. They say it's appreciated, but I'm still not sure how much is actually read...
I've gone as far as including section headings in some long emails.
That's basically how studies/scientific papers are written
