When I began digging into the interactive editing reports, I noticed that each slow-paced paragraph had been highlighted-plus, AutoCrit provided a series of visuals that helped me understand how my story’s slow paragraphs were affecting the narrative. In other words, AutoCrit correctly identified the most significant problem with my novel. This ties right in with the most common criticism I received about the book: although the writing was beautiful, the story itself was occasionally too quiet/slow.

Then I started comparing the AutoCrit reports side-by-side. AutoCrit gave it a score of 89.47 - much better than the score my novel had received.

AutoCrit identified my novel’s biggest flaw
