For Fiction Writers

A real editor for fiction writers.

Google Docs is for memos. Word is for contracts. Typewriter is for novels.

Fiction writers need tools that understand narrative. Chapters, not pages. Characters, not contacts. Story bibles, not spreadsheets. Most writing software ignores this.

Typewriter is built from scratch for long-form fiction. A chapter binder. Automatic character tracking. A story bible with six categories. AI that reads your full manuscript and writes in your voice. Free.

How fiction writers use Typewriter

Organize by chapter, not by page break

A sidebar binder with drag-to-reorder. Scene breaks. Chapter targets. No more scrolling through a 300-page document to find that one scene.

Track characters automatically

Typewriter knows who appears in which chapter, what they look like, and what they said. It flags contradictions before your beta readers do.

AI that reads the whole book

Not scene-level context. Full manuscript context. Ask the AI to continue a scene and it knows your character's voice from chapter one.

Focus mode for deep work

Ambient sounds. Screen dimming. Typewriter scroll. Session timers. Sprint mode. Everything you need to disappear into the draft.

Export print-ready files

PDF with trim sizes for KDP and IngramSpark. EPUB for ebooks. DOCX for editors. Typography controls for drop caps, scene breaks, and leading.
