An immersive writing app for rough drafts

It makes writing the first draft of your novel as easy as possible by improving the writing experience. It pulls you into your story with audio-visual themes, makes you feel comfortable in your writing space with its minimalist approach, and helps you hit your word count target with features that inspire momentum.










I built Protowords because I sat down to write a sci-fi novel and wasn't happy with any of the available tools.
I noticed that existing writing apps were fine for outlining and editing, but the actual writing...a blank white screen (or if you're lucky, a dark mode) just doesn't cut it when I'm trying to immerse myself in a fictional world. Not to mention the heavy learning and customization requirements to get anything good.
Being the software snob I am, I made my own tool, and it is already the best writing experience for what I'm looking for. The question is... do I have any fellow software snob writers out there or is everyone just cool writing in anything?
