The Margin vs BadWriterProject

Track every writing session. Watch your manuscript grow. The Margin helps you build a consistent practice — one page at a time. LOG EVERY SESSION Finished a writing sprint? Log your word count, chapter, mood, and notes. WATCH YOUR MANUSCRIPT GROW Your home screen shows a manuscript stack that grows with every session. See your total word count, daily progress, and how close you are to your goal. TIMED WRITING SESSIONS Set a timer and write. A rotating collection of writing tips and craft quotes motivates you while the clock runs. TRACK MULTIPLE PROJECTS Working on a novel and a screenplay? Each project gets its own session history, word count, and progress bar. KNOW YOUR PATTERNS Weekly, monthly, and yearly insights show you when you write best, how consistent you are, and where your streaks land. Stats include average words per session, best writing day, and words-per-week trends. STREAKS AND MILESTONES Every day you write counts. The Margin tracks your current streak, personal best, and milestones like your longest streak and biggest session. MOOD TRACKING Tag each session with how the writing felt: dry, grinding, steady, flow, or sparks. Over time, see which moods correlate with your best output.

Bad Writer Project is a minimalist writing app designed to help you show up and write every single day. Each session starts with a random thought provoking prompt to spark your creativity. Once you begin, you have 60 seconds to write continuously. There’s just one rule: you cannot backspace. There's no editing and no overthinking. Your goal isn’t to write perfectly, it’s to build consistency. How it works: > Get a random writing prompt every day > Write non stop until the 60 second timer runs out > Backspace is disabled, keep typing beyond the mistakes > Complete the session and grow your daily streak > All entries are saved locally in your personal archive Features: > Gamified streak system to keep you consistent > 900+ creative prompts to beat writer’s block > 60 second writing sessions for quick daily practice > No edit rule to eliminate perfectionism > Local only storage for complete privacy > Minimal, distraction free design Whether you're a writer, student or just someone trying to articulate more clearly, Bad Writer Project helps you build a simple habit: Show up. Write badly. Do it again tomorrow. Made by Pracheta Mohanty
