It’s a beautiful sight!

I have used a window of five thousand words this time, which shows the trends much more smoothly.  Let’s break this down and read what it is telling us in the next few posts.  Remember our Words Per Chapter list as you look over the graph.  The great news is that since I use Lexos directly on their web site, I can hover over any individual red dot and get the exact word number at the center of that window.  Zipping over to my electronic copy of The Hobbit, I can find that word and report back.

Tech Support is going to try to teach me how to use image-manipulating software to make a layer of chapter break lines to superimpose on each of these graphs.  If he succeeds, I will owe Tech Support a very big batch of blueberry muffins.
