AN EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT OF MY NEW BOOK

INSPIRED, AS USUAL, by Coulton,

HERE IS MORE INFORMATION THAN YOU REQUIRE, as a word cloud, using all 91,723 words of the manuscript as saved on 5-6-08.





INCREDIBLE word-clouding/end-of-day-erasing technology is courtesy: WORDLE.

That is all.

PS: HONESTLY, I didn't know my book had so much "Mr." Has to be the mole-man names.

I believe it's possible that your link to your wordcloud is not exactly accurate, 'cause I'm not getting there from here.

Man oh man! "Mr" totally dwarfs "Mrs" ... you should be ashamed of yourself!

Those word clouds are actually a really cool way to preview upcoming works.

.....probably wouldn't work so well with things like the new Hulk movie though. It'd probably just be the words "HULK" and "SMASH" a dozen times over.

One recommendation:

Needs more sex.

Perhaps a list of mole-men sexual positions...

HA! Now I'm gonna save money and just piece the book together from that word cloud! Sucker!

Based on the word "Miss" being significantly larger than words like "March" or "November," I can only assume that you've included a treatise on Playmates-of-the-Month. Well done, sir!

Quick, someone write a book that has the same word distribution!

Word clouds make me sad, as I inevitably wander toward wondering what my life would look like as a word cloud.

I assume that "mole-men" will make a stronger showing in the Wordle of the final version, as this one appears to come from a pre-copyeditor's-second-note draft.

Thanks to Coulton (and now you), I am totally addicted to wordle. I've taken to downloading entire texts of Shakespeare and Doctor Who to make these darn clouds. (PS. It's awesome! :) )

I like the title. It gives me all the information I need.

And I feel very exclusively treated!

That's an awesome visualization tool. I'm hanging on to that link.
