Manuscript / 07
The Glass Harbour — Chapter 3
Draft
The harbour was empty when Mara arrived.
A light moved inside the old signal tower.
Story graph
A small suggestion
“A light flickered” adds tension without changing your meaning.
Accept Reject
01
Your scattered notes become one living manuscript.
Thirty files, four apps, one novel.
02
Lost plot threads find their way back to you.
That fix you promised in Chapter 4 — forgotten by Chapter 7.
03
Blank-page stalls turn into steady momentum.
The cursor blinking at a scene you've rewritten five times.
The writing desk / 01
Everything a novel needs, in one place.
Draft
Draft in focused chapters.
A quiet editor keeps word counts and scene notes beside the page, not in another tab.
Story Graph
See your whole story world.
Characters, places, and timelines connect in one living graph, so contradictions surface early.
Revise with AI you control
Make every edit your decision.
The co-writer suggests. You accept, reject, or rewrite every single edit.
Revision room / 02
You stay in control of every word.
Three small steps. One decision that is always yours.
Story graph
Step 1 — Spot the thread
See what connects.
Mara finds a map in Chapter 1. The graph shows where it returns in Chapter 3.
Margin notes / 03
Writers keep writing.
“I fixed a timeline hole I'd missed for months. The graph flagged it in one afternoon.”
“It never writes for me. It shows me what I already wrote — and what wobbles.”
“My first draft went from three half-started files to a finished manuscript.”
