Writing Platforms and Apps
Disclaimer: Alright, I know this isnāt strictly sci-fi or fantasy-themed, BUT. Too bad, this goes out for everyone who writes, ever.
So, writing is hard. Full stop. Writing is difficult, and irritating, and oftentimes downright infuriating- and as much as we writers adore it, we could all use some help, right?Ā
Enter some tools of the trade- writing platforms and apps! Every writers uses something to write- be it the traditional methods of pens and notebooks to brainstorm, regular MS Word programs, online writing websites, or fancy programs like Scrivener for plotting- and all of them have their merits and downfalls. There are a ton of platforms upon which one can write. Thereās no way I could get through all of them in one sitting, let afford some of the fancier ones out there (curse you, fundamental necessities!), but for this post I wanted to discuss the 4 programs that I use (and have been using for more than a year) and think are especially helpful not only for writing anything, but for...wait for it...NaNoWriMo endeavors!Ā Woooh, itās time for Camp NaNo!!
Ahem.
So, letās begin!
First up to bat is...Writeometer!!
This one here is an app available for free- yes, FREE, one of my favorite words right there- that is designed specifically for helping you track your writing progress. You can enter as many projects as you like, decide on your word count goals and your preferred deadline to reach that goal (perfect for NaNo!), and it will calculate how many words per day youāll need to write- and, bonus, you can set subtle reminders to pop up at certain times to tell you itās time to write. Even more bonuses- this app has tons of other features that are fun to use, including a writing log to record how youāre doing, graphs to show your progress, a list of stats pertaining to each project (for instance, your averages per day/week/month, your writing streaks, your best writing days, etc), a nifty little toolbox with a dictionary/thesaurus/word of the day/random words generator, AND a writing sprints timer that rewards you guavas each time you write for 25 minutes. Fun fact, guavas can be virtually exchanged on the app for prizes you set- mine include things like,Ā ā3 guavas to eat a cookie!ā andĀ ā10 guavas to bang head onto desk while yelling!ā.Ā Great stuff!
Next up- another app I use very often is JotterPad!
This one is very simple- while Writeometer was meant to deal with the nitty gritty statistics and tracking of writing, JotterPad is just a clean, simple mobile platform for writing. Nothing more, nothing less. You can create new documents and folders, and organize them any which way you desire- which, in my anxious writer brain, is wonderful- and if you want, add your Google Drive to it for backup so nothing is ever lost. Each folder and document is automatically made with different font colors, which I think is a nice touch, and every document has options for a viewing mode (closer spacing, no keyboard, cleaner look) and an edit mode (allows you to write, shows spelling errors, wider spacing for easier typing). Also in each doc is a dictionary and thesaurus option, a dark screen option for writing at night or sensitivity to light, and a short collection of stats for the doc (word count, character count, reading time, etc). This is all in just the basic app- there is a pro version that brings in other cool features like different writing fonts and document formats, but it costs money and Iāve never had any need for it.Ā
Onto the third program I like to use- myWriteClub!Ā
This one I just discovered a little while ago, courtesy of a fellow NaNo buddy, but I love it.Ā The site is still in beta, so feel free to jump on the early bandwagon! This is a website, not an app (although hereās hoping they make an app for it...), but itās 100% free and only requires an email address to make an account. The whole site is oriented towards writing sprints, and they make it fun- for NaNo and Camp NaNo, you can make a private sprint that only people with the link can join up on, and for anyone else thereās a global sprint going 24/7. What are theseĀ āsprintsā, you might ask? Writing sprints last 25 minutes, and start every half hour- and on this site, you can watch your friends word count meter fill up in real time. Donāt worry- nobody can see your writing, only your word count. It makes NaNo writing sprints wayyyy easier, trust me. Iād recommend setting up a Dropbox account for all your writing on the site to be automatically uploaded to- thereās only one window you can write it, and thereās no saving documents on site- which I find is actually good, because thereās no getting lost.
Now, last and certainly not least- my FAVORITE writing site, 4thewords!
Okay, Iāll try to restrain myself here. Iāve been using 4thewords for over a year now, and I ADORE it. That being said, I will mention that this is also a fairly new site, still working out some of the bugs and getting updated all the time- Iāve never had a problem, but I wanted to mention it. This site is geared towards making writing fun, which it accomplishes by turning it into a game- a game with adorable monsters. Basically, you have a little avatar (whom you can edit and outfit as you please) and a map of different places you can unlock as you progress- each location has different monsters, which you canĀ āfightā by writing a certain amount of words in a specific amount of minutes. For instance, to defeat the Wignow you must write 250 words in 30 minutes. To defeat the Pester, 500 words in 50 minutes; the Mawt, 1,400 words in 210 minutes. 4thewords is set up like an actual game- for each monster defeated, you get little prizes that you can trade in at the marketplace, and you can boost your fighting prowess by making or buying armor and weapons. There are also different missions you can run- namely things like,Ā ādefeat 20 of XXX monsterā, after which you get a bigger prize.Ā
I mean, look at this little monster.Ā LOOK AT IT.
Even better things! I know, I know, Iāll wrap it up quick- 4thewords runs lots of different events, including Love Week (for Valentineās Day), Tico Week (for Costa Rica Independence Day), Winter Wonderland (for Christmas and winter holidays), annnnnd...NaNoWriMo!!! Each event has special missions and monsters to fight, and has special prizes. Thereās one going on right now, actually, for Camp NaNo, and an even bigger one in November for the main event. Also, 4thewords has a Read section where you can post your writing, if so desired- and every year so far, thereās been a writing contest with real prizes for people who post their writing projects. Not to mention, Iāve spoken with the creator themselves when I changed my account email, and they were so, so polite and accommodating. The only downfall to this site is that yes, it costs $4USD a month to subscribe- but, with everything itās got going on, from active forums to incredible graphics (the ART, you guys, holy sh*t) and an lengthy, intricate ongoing storyline, Iām okay with the cost and I think it makes sense. Plus, bonus- thereās a month long free trial upon making an account, so if youāre not sure about it, you can try it out for free!
Alright, I know that was a lot of info all at once. I want to say right here, right now that I have not at all been asked to review on these sites or make a post about them in any way- this post is purely my opinions, with no coercion or bribing or whatever else. This is just me, ranting- I mean, sharing- some of the writing platforms that I, personally, find fun and helpful for me in hopes that someone else finds it useful.Ā
And hey, if youāve ever used one of these platforms, tell me your thoughts! Or even better, send me your favorite apps and/or programs- maybe Iāll make a compilation post of them, who knows. Questions about them? Hit me up.
(Bonus: LOOK AT THIS LITTLE STINKER, I CANāT EVEN FUNCTION)
Okay, Iām done, Iām done.Ā
I Just Discovered #Writeometer
I Just DiscoveredĀ #Writeometer
This is going to sound like a product endorsement, and I suppose it is, but I just downloaded this thing (which is free) and I love it! Ā I was looking for an app where I could keep track of my word count outside of NaNoWriMo, and this was the first app that popped up on my search. Ā It had a lot of good ratings so I thought, what the hell? Ā This turned out to beĀ a good plan!
First of all, itāsā¦

It is a delicious thing to write, to be no longer yourself but to move in an entire universe of your own creating. ā Gustave Flaubert
Books aren't written, they're rewritten. Including your own. It is one of the hardest things to accept, especially after the seventh rewrite hasn't quite done it⦠ā Michael Crichton #Writeometer
