my machine won't allow me to embiggen! Is that the cover back and front laid flat?

Charles Lambert said...

No, it's something called a word cloud, which takes the entire text and filters out the most common words then presents them graphically according to frequency. I'll try and add a link so that you can see it embiggened!

I guess Andrew is the main character then?

Charles Lambert said...

I can't deny it...

This antediluvian machine won't embiggen it either, even on the Wordle site. I always have this problem with Wordle, dammit.

As far as I can make out from the thumbnail, it features Andrew and his one night photographs, so perhaps the cover won't be featuring another headless female.
Anyway, I'm greatly looking forward to the book.

For such a small word cloud this is turning out to be frighteningly revealing. And yet not... I hope you won't be disappointed, Anne!

I use word clouds for teaching all the time. Courageous of you to submit your novel into one.

Or foolhardy?
