Sentence Statistics
Highlights the words with positive and negative connotation and generates graphs showing:
Word Length based on position
Shows the average word length and standard deviation based on position in the sentence. In a story told from first person, the first word is likely to be shorter than other words in the sentences since so many sentences will start with "I".

Left-Click on this graph will give you a list of the words found at that position in your sentences.

Sentence Lengths
The graph shows the length of each sentence as your piece progresses.

You can use this to find areas where you have groups of sentences that are the same or similar lengths. Sections like that can be repetitive and boring.

Left-Click on the graph to create a pop-up displaying the sentence at that location.

Control-Left-Click on the graph to scroll to a the selected sentence and highlight it.

Emotional Tone
This shows the emotional tone of the piece as it progresses. The graph uses the connotation word list to count positive and negative words. Where there are a lot of these words, the emotional impact (good or bad) is higher. Where the words with connotation are missing, the prose is blander. This may be good - everyone needs to get off the roller coaster once in a while, but you'll want to be certain you're letting your reader relax in the right place.
