Word Cloud

Got this from Jo.

Wordle is a tool that takes your words (blog, novels, etc.) and turns them into a "Word Cloud". It's the coolest thing ever!

Here's what my Justice WIP looks like. It actually puts the story into a new perspective for me. I'm amazed at the results.

My other WIP (pretty much abandoned) doesn't have as much popping out, which explains a lot. (g)
