Hey all, thanks for checking out Taleforge! With this app I set out to create the creative writing exercise I would love to use myself. Here's to hoping you enjoy using it as much as I do!

Tried it and immediately bought you a coffee for the extra perks. Absolutely love the idea and the execution, having it toss prompts and ideas at me as I go is great for keeping me on my toes and flexible to try and integrate them into whatever story I'm building as I go. I can easily see this becoming a daily 10-20 minute writing exercise warmup, or even leading to story ideas that are worth fleshing out further. Thanks for creating this!

@new_user_322e3df8be Hey Daniel, thanks a lot for the support and the great feedback! This is exactly what I created this for, so very happy to see you get the intended use out of it. Is there anything right now that you would like to see that would make this even better for you?

Love the idea! Definitely something I could use to help my brother train. One thing that bugs me is that the cards on the side are kind of flashy and distracting.

@dheeraj_bhardwaj Hey Dheeraj, thank you for the feedback! There's a distraction-free toggle built in now that lets you fade out the interface with a simple keyboard shortcut. Hope that makes things more usable for you.
