Also, when I've had a novel that was cross or multi-genre, I've plugged it into Wordle to try and get a feel for which genre it landed more firmly in, which helped me write the query (also helped me to figure out the important themes/elements to focus on in the query as wel).Terri Brucehttp://www.terribruce.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-54311121987555821012012-04-25T06:04:40.755-06:002012-04-25T06:04:40.755-06:00i always wondered where people got those! thanks! ...i always wondered where people got those! thanks! <br /><br />& congrats on the editing!Tara Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587802105993889515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-78664101642483402372012-04-25T04:33:21.298-06:002012-04-25T04:33:21.298-06:00Ah!

Amazing way to break down the tone of the sections by seeing the repeating terms.
