How nanowrimo participants use Typewriter
Daily word count targets
Set your daily goal. Track your progress. See how far ahead or behind you are. Typewriter shows your manuscript word count, chapter word count, and daily session count.
Sprint mode
Set a timer. Write without stopping. Sprint mode tracks your words-per-minute and session total. Perfect for NaNo writing sprints with your local group.
Focus mode for distraction-free writing
Ambient sounds. Screen dimming. Typewriter scroll that keeps your cursor centered. Close everything else. Just you and the draft.
Chapter organization from day one
Don't write 50,000 words in one document. Typewriter's binder lets you organize by chapter from the start. Reorder later when you revise in December.
