Readability and reading age

Evaluate readability / reading age



Flesch reading ease / Flesch-Kincaid To display this dialog box, click the readability button on the writing tab within the ribbon bar.

MyNovel can evaluate the readability and reading age of the current chapter you are writing.

The readability is based on the well known Flesch Reading Ease score. The table of values is given below:

0 - 29 Very difficult
30 - 49 Difficult
50 - 59 Fairly difficult
60 - 79 Fairly easy
80 - 89 Easy
90 - 100 Very easy

Naturally you want to gear your readability towards what you would expect of your readers. The reading age is also displayed which will help you to maintain the correct reading age, particularly if you are writing for children.

Readability dialog

You can set your target reading age while creating a new novel or in the novel details page.

You can also evaluate the readability and reading age of your whole manuscript chapter-by-chapter by showing the progress dialog.
