Local Revision: Variety

The following will discuss about variety in my first Project.

1. How much variation is there in your sentence structures in the current draft? Can you spot any repetitive or redundant sentence patterns in your writing? Provide a cogent analysis of what the Rules for Writers reading tells you about your sentences.
I think there are a mix of compound sentences as well as sentences that are short and sweet. There are plenty of long sentences I believe in this project.

2. What about paragraph structures, including transitions between different paragraphs (or, for video/audio projects, different sections of the project)?
I think each paragraph felt as if it would end with a cliffhanger towards the next paragraph. The transitional sentences however might have been better included in some paragraphs that don't have them.

3. What about vocabulary? Is there variety and flavor in your use of vocabulary? What are the main strengths and weaknesses of the draft's approach to vocabulary?
My vocabulary is neither limited nor complex, it is somewhere in the middle. I think that is just enough to not sound repetitive yet not overdose the reader with vocabulary because that can distract them from the point of the content.
