4thewords VS Daily Prompt

There's 4thewords, where they gamify writing. I've not tried it but it looks interesting. Source: about 1 year ago

Yes, I'm the same way. Two things have helped me. 1. Using the Pomodoro technique. You can find timers online and they tick while you are doing whatever, which I find helps me stay on track. I do 30 minutes with 5 minutes break. 2. 4thewords.com is a really cool gamification system for writers. You basically fight monsters while you're writing. It's amazing how well it keeps you on track! Also, there are some... Source: about 1 year ago

I use 4thewords.com with Scrivener for organisation and notes, but it really depends on what works for you. I like the gamification of 4thewords because it helps me focus, other people prefer options where they can completely turn off their wifi for fewer distractions.

My word count went up substantially when I stopped commuting every day in March of 2020.

I use 4TheWords more often than some of the other ones lately, and it's sorta fun too. They've got a thirty day trial and plenty of events that give you additional time for free (especially NaNo). Also worth a check if some of the other software doesn't tickle your fancy. Source: about 1 year ago

I've only found prompt apps focused on writers so far (e.g. Daily Prompt and Writing Prompts), but those are often much longer and don't have a clear subject. Does something like this even exist? Where do you get your inspiration from? Source: almost 2 years ago

If you guys end up needing prompts, check out Daily Prompt. Full disclosure, I'm involved with the team there at the moment but there's a new prompt every day and I think thousands in the prompts library too :). Source: over 2 years ago

Have you tried Daily Prompt yet? It's a slightly different concept as it's prompts-based, but it helps get people writing every day. From what I've seen there's a pretty wide range of things being submitted there, so your sci-fi and thriller stories should be welcome :). Source: over 2 years ago

Also Daily Prompt is a similar sized community to Neovel :) It's a bit of a different concept, being a prompts-based app to help you write every day, but you could test out scenes/characters there and get some pretty good feedback. Source: over 2 years ago

There's nothing wrong with a simple writing style, as lots of the comments below have echoed, but if you want to increase its complexity perhaps try reading more or challenging yourself with certain writing prompts that are outside of what you usually write about. Source: almost 3 years ago
