The Rhythm of Your Text
Paste a paragraph and the tool draws a wave of sentence lengths. Good prose alternates short and long like music; an even fence of identical bars means monotony. The idea goes back to Gary Provost’s famous passage about the rhythm of writing.
Frequently asked questions
What sentence length is “correct”?
None: the power is in contrast — a few short ones, then a long one that breathes.
How are sentences counted?
By end punctuation: periods, question marks, exclamation marks, ellipses.
