Whether you’re an avid writer working on a novel, a hobbyist writing fan fiction, or someone new to the creative process, you will benefit from a daily writing habit. This post assumes that you understand the numerous benefits of writing every day and focuses on the ultimate platform to use to facilitate your daily writing habit and help you reap maximum benefits. If you are unaware of— or want a refresher of— the transformative benefits that writing everyday has on your life, check out this article.
That being said—in today’s day and age, we’re busy. Personal and professional tasks and responsibilities crowd our calendars, and we feel we simply don’t have the time for ourselves. We barely have time to go to the gym, let alone establish and maintain a daily writing habit.
We hear you. Writing by hand simply just takes too long. And typing on a Word or Google document—although faster—can feel too corporate and overwhelming, which takes away the fun and reduces the likelihood that you’ll repeat this again tomorrow.
But what if I told you there was a (free!) website that you could use that makes writing not only simple, but fun and rewarding right from day 1, that you’ll establish a writing habit in no time, and finally be able to transform your life forever?
It’s not too outlandish of an idea. Writers and the general public alike have asked, and we’ve responded with WriteMore.io. After carefully considering the feedback from thousands of avid writers and the general public, we came up with a powerfully intuitive, joyfully simple, delightfully customizable, and incentive-based motivational writing tool. This idea initially sprung from our need for a powerfully intuitive, delightfully customizable, and opinionated writing tool.
When using WriteMore (completely free to sign up right now!) you’ll be able to select the writing aesthetic (font & colors) of your choice, decide whether you want a fun writing prompt, gain rewards and points for sticking with your habit, enjoy intelligent analytics based on the tone and mood of your entry, share your work anonymously or privately with others, and join a community of intelligent, like-minded people. With the numerous benefits of daily writing in mind—such as better decision-making, reduced stress, stronger self-discipline, here’s how using WriteMore.io can help you achieve these benefits.
1. Eliminates the frustration of writer’s block.
Many of us have been forced to draft up a work of writing at some point or another, whether it’s a high-stakes email, work presentation, school essay, or other obligation. During this writing process you may have encountered the dreaded “writer’s block”.
Nothing is worse than an ever-encroaching deadline coupled with the inability to get the creative juices flowing. A very popular method of overcoming writer’s block is free writing. Free writing is the process of writing without any set of rules or constraints. The process begins with setting up a blank page (ideally in WriteMore.io) and spewing whatever thoughts come to mind. Just set a limit and continue to write until you reach your goal. Don’t worry about your grammar, editing, or formatting, just write away!
Once you reach your goal, take a step back and scan the page for inspiration. Our number one piece of feedback from users is that free writing on our platform has helped them work through a few bouts of Writer’s Block.
2. Purging the brain helps writer’s focus their thoughts
On the other end of the spectrum, having too many thoughts cycling through your brain can do more harm than good. Have you ever sat down to write just to have your brain fluttered with thoughts about your family, work, what to eat for lunch, that sporadic clanking 3 blocks down, or just about anything unrelated to the task at hand?
With your mind going in what feels like every possible direction, why not follow the stream and try to write it all out. Write More offers the perfect venue, and with our sentiment analysis feature coming out soon, you can attempt to assign meaning to these rambling thoughts.
3. Improve your writing skills
Practice makes perfect. You may not feel like you’re improving, but if you stick to the habit for months or even years, the difference will certainly be obvious when you go back and review earlier entries. In addition, WriteMore is private by default, we are geared towards private journaling and optimize for your individual experience.
Want feedback on your writing too? WriteMore has a share feature, allowing users to generate a password-protected live snapshot with a shareable link that they can send to others.
4. Dopamine reward-system
It’s no secret that daily journaling can resolve internal conflicts and reduce anxiety. It’s actually been proven that journaling and self-reflection for just 15 minutes a day. can reduce the need for mental health intervention or the need for medication to control anxiety. If you’re someone who writes for work, journaling can sometimes feel mundane or like a chore. However, with these health benefits, even the most published authors would benefit from this daily exercise. Luckily, Write More has built in prompts for self-reflection, giving everyone a place to start if they want to try this technique!
