  • You can manually add text to the excerpt field on the “Write Post” page when you create a new post (or edit an existing post). Copy the first paragraph from your post and drop it into the excerpt field. Though, you’ll have to add formatting such as <strong> and <em>.

    See the Codex page: the_excerpt for more information.

    Or you could click the “More” tag to put the “read more” break exactly where you want it.
