A newspaper lead (or lede if you prefer) can do its job in one sentence, but with few exceptions, a paragraph will contain more than one sentence. The OWL site, aimed at college students, suggests a length of from three to five or more sentences.
1 There is no set rule about paragraph length. 2  They can be long or short. . ., though do note that both the shortest and the longest are rare and you should take care in their use. 3  What works best is usually a mixture of longer and and shorter paragraphs within the middle range. The document's format should influence paragraph length. 2  If a document has narrow columns (two to three to the page), then paragraphs should be shorter, perhaps on the average of no more than 50 words. 3  If a document uses a full-page format (one column), then average paragraph length can reach 125 words.
