Monday Magic - 2 Free Apps for Struggling Writers

Today's app is a little different in that not everyone will be interested in it.

Plot Generator targets those who want to write books. Using it is as easy as visiting the websites.

Select a genre, click the Generate button, and the app serves you up with a plot, complete with a protagonist, secondary character, and a plot.

You can save the plot or hit the reset button to get another.

Here's an example of what I got when I selected Mystery and clicked the Generate Button.

Protagonist — A constable, who can be found at the pub.

Secondary character — A baker, who is suspiciously agreeable.

Plot — It's a spy story about good versus evil. It kicks off at a bank with a mysterious suicide.

(Note that: someone in the story has a reputation to salvage.)

And there's a twist! Someone also faked a death.

If you're trying to write your first book but don't know how to get going, this might help. In fact, Reedsy, the company that created Plot Generator has a free companion app, Studio, to help you plan, write, edit, and format your book manuscript.

Sign up for Studio with your email or use a Google login. The interface looks pretty awesome. I could see an author using one or both of these apps to get the imagination going. In fact, I know a few authors who are wonderful writers, but they struggle to come up with unique plot ideas.

TAKEAWAY TRUTH

Try these 2 Reedsy apps and let me know if it helps you and how it helps you. Have a great week.
