Improve Your Writing With An Online Conversion Calculator

One of the things you quickly learn when writing a novel is that using the same word over and over again throughout your novel is a big no-no. Readers, and even more importantly submissions editors get very frustrated by the repeated use of the same word. Switching up the words used during the writing of a manuscript isnt always as easy as you might expect.

The problem writers face is that there is a limited number of ways to describe things. For example, if youre writing a novel where the two main characters live 8.8 miles apart from one another, theres a limited number of ways you can say this. Not only do you have to make sure that everyone reading your book knows youre talking about distance and not something else, but you also have to make sure the readers know exactly much the distance adds up to.

An online conversion table could very well be your saving grace. This website has all kinds of distances that you can use. Not only will find that you can use words like centimeters, yards, and millimeters to describe length. Even more importantly youll be able to use the converter to learn the exact amount of each measurement. For example 8.8 miles is equal to

46,464 feet

557,568 inches

1416222.72 Centimeters

14162227.2 Millimeter

14162.227 meters

A truly clever writer will be able to use the converter to set the tone for a particular scene. For example if you want the distance to sound like an impossible number for the two characters to bridge, you will want to convert the miles into feet. If you want the length between the two characters to seem like it isnt a big deal, you should convert from using the word miles and use kilometers or yards instead. The exact word you chose will really change the readers opinion about the situation.

The online converter website is easy to use. Even someone with very little computer or internet knowledge will be able to quickly calculate the exact distance they want. The site can be easily bookmarked so youll always have an easy time finding it when you have another question about distance. Best of all youre going to find that the site is faster and more accurate than the standard calculator you used to keep on your desk and used when you needed help determining length.
