 ### Pass 3: Paragraph and Section-Level Review

     most paragraphs have between three and five sentences, rewrite some to be
     one or two sentences and let others run to six or seven.

     the same word count, combine some shorter ones or split a longer one

     "Furthermore," "Moreover," "Additionally," "That said"). If more than two
     transition words start consecutive paragraphs, rewrite those openings to

+28. Read the piece aloud and listen for passages that sound too smooth, too
     even, or too predictable. Human prose has rough patches. If there aren't
     any, the piece still reads as machine output.

     idiosyncratic: a sentence with unusual word order, a parenthetical that goes
     on a bit long, an aside only loosely connected to the main point, a word
     choice that's specific and unexpected.
