Page 1: Numbers Never Lie

For a novice novel ist/poet l ike me, I wanted to know i f my

work fe l l within the accepted range. Now I do not have a

mentor here and for a person l ike me, who writes because I

have a story to te l l regardless of the current trend, sa le

numbers might be misleading.

L I E

There is another problem in

taking sales number. Of course, I

wi l l never get a sa les number for

WIP novels ! ! ! St i l l , i f I need to

check the #Qual ity of my #WIP

#Novel or #Anthology of

#Poetry, where would I go. . . .

Here stat ist ics came to my rescue.

With Control Limits I can now see

how my work compares and deviates

with the best of the genre. I t is not a

rocket science when an a lgorithm

can predict a best sel ler with 84%

accuracy. This is what we term in

#CorporateWorld as a #QuickHit . I t

would give you a direct ion about

your writ ing.

The f irst version is for Poetry.

Yes, I d id i t to check my f irst

Anthology of Poems #RubyDrops.

First Poems may not fol low the

same rules of the prose (most of

the readings are created with

prose in mind) I had to be sure i f

my work fe l l in the accepted

range of the work by the masters .

The approach is s imple, a l l you need

to do is f i l l the corresponding data

and then #Excel sheet is would

compare your work with that of the

masters , g ive you the v isual

representat ion a lso interpretat ion. I t

is an amazing tool for new writers or

anybody who wants to #Check and

#Improve.
