Read aloud

Your ear catches what the eye slides over

Reading your text aloud is one of the oldest editing techniques. Vellam reads the chapter back to you in a real narrator's voice, so you hear what silent reading lets slip.

Ready to listen Chapter 7

Dusk settled over the rooftops, and still she stood by the window, counting the footsteps on the stairs.

What the ear hears

01

Rhythm and long sentences

You hear where a sentence stumbles and where it runs on with no end in sight.

02

Dialogue that sounds like real speech

The ear knows at once whether a character talks like a person or like a memo.

03

Repetitions and gaps

The same word twice, a dropped word, a typo the eye jumps over.
