Make your habit easy

From outline tags

to detailed chapter feedback

Writer's block is REAL. One of the best remedies is knowing where you want to go. Brainstorm a premise, create an outline, come up with key plot points, and add tags to get more done with your writing. Chapter tags are also used to construct a visual timeline — and more.

Automatically generated timeline

When you tag chapters in your project, we generate a timeline of characters, events, settings and more to provide a visual overview of how your story evolves.

WritingHabit has allowed me to connect with people in a carefree setting. It's been great to make a personal challenge for yourself to hit a certain word count every single day… or try to topple someone off the leaderboards.

The best part of WritingHabit, in my opinion, is the easy customization. Every writer will engage with this app in their own way, according to their own needs. And you don't need a PhD to get started on your story right away.

WritingHabit has helped to hold off the evil monster known as procrastination. With its features all in one place and its stretch goals, I am constantly encouraged to write more.
