Does your soul sing when you see a typewriter? My soul is singing now that there are typewriter sounds on I Write Like. Try it!
I’m so in love, I’m melting 🫠.
(I’ll attach the screenshots showing how to enable the feature.)

This is such an awesome new feature on I Write Like! I hate rewriting my numbers, and quotes used to be a separate stalling distraction. Not anymore!

My favorite book by Margaret Atwood is not The Handmaid's Tale, though, but this one.

Here’s the rest of the text if you are interested. It’s my adaptation of the legend about Kapetanovo Lake in Montenegro. The photo is also mine.

'Readability' is another tool I use. It shows how easy my texts are to understand and how long they take to read.

I Write Like is a new minimalist text editor with many helpful but non-distracting tools. It’s beautiful and fast, with an inspiring typewriter font and plenty of space to create in. It’s made by a small independent company, a product crafted with love.

"Style is a very simple matter: it is all rhythm. Once you get that, you can’t use the wrong words. But on the other hand here am I sitting after half the morning, crammed with ideas, and visions, and so on, and can’t dislodge them, for lack of the right rhythm." Virginia Woolf

I know that my text is ready when I can read it aloud and hear no mistakes in grammar or flow. A shortcut to this is to use the Read aloud tool of my text editor. Then it's pure listening, without getting distracted by my own voice.

My favorite detail about I Write Like is the vast emptiness of the page. Nothing distracts, nothing exists. Just you, your thoughts, and that perfect typewriter feel of the font.

The lines by @jenthorne.bsky.social as a caption for @drippingwithwords.bsky.social 's photo were so beautiful that they didn't let me go. So I added my lines too. I hope the screenshot format is okay, it didn't fit into a text post.

If you see this message, and you are someone who posts about writing, art or any skill, at least sometimes, please reply to this message in a bottle. It's lonely in this sea of doom and gloom.

Being a new account sometimes sounds like the beginning of Pink Floyd's song 'Comfortably Numb'.

"Hello?
Is there anybody in there?"
