It's not only writers who can benefit from this free online tool. If you're a programmer who's working on a project where
blocks of text are needed, this tool can be a great way to get that. It's a good way to test your programming and that the tool
being created is working well.

Above are a few examples of how the random paragraph generator can be beneficial. The best way to see if this random
paragraph picker will be useful for your intended purposes is to give it a try. Generate a number of paragraphs to see if they
are beneficial to your current project.

If you do find this paragraph tool useful, please do us a favor and let us know how you're using it. It's greatly beneficial for
us to know the different ways this tool is being used so we can improve it with updates. This is especially true since there are
times when the generators we create get used in completely unanticipated ways from when we initially created them. If you

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these random paragraphs for my project?

Yes! All of the random paragraphs in our generator are free to use for your projects.

Does a computer generate these paragraphs?

No! All of the paragraphs in the generator are written by humans, not computers. When first building this generator we
thought about using computers to generate the paragraphs, but they weren't very good and many times didn't make any sense
at all. We therefore took the time to create paragraphs specifically for this generator to make it the best that we could.

Can I contribute random paragraphs?

Yes. We're always interested in improving this generator and one of the best ways to do that is to add new and interesting
paragraphs to the generator. If you'd like to contribute some random paragraphs, please contact us.

How many words are there in a paragraph?

There are usually about 200 words in a paragraph, but this can vary widely. Most paragraphs focus on a single idea that's
expressed with an introductory sentence, then followed by two or more supporting sentences about the idea. A short
paragraph may not reach even 50 words while long paragraphs can be over 400 words long, but generally speaking they tend
to be approximately 200 words in length.

Tackle Writers' Block

A random paragraph can also be an excellent way for a writer to tackle writers' block. Writing block can often happen due to
being stuck with a current project that the writer is trying to complete. By inserting a completely random paragraph from
which to begin, it can take down some of the issues that may have been causing the writers' block in the first place.

Beginning Writing Routine

Another productive way to use this tool to begin a daily writing routine. One way is to generate a random paragraph with the
intention to try to rewrite it while still keeping the original meaning. The purpose here is to just get the writing started so that
when the writer goes onto their day's writing projects, words are already flowing from their fingers.
