The Editor

Edit what you can finally see

A distraction-free editor that highlights your prose by parts of speech. Adverbs glow. Passive voice surfaces.

How I write 1,000 words before noon

Good writing hides its effort. The reader sees a clean sentence and never notices the three drafts underneath it.

Syntax highlighting paints every word by its part of speech, so weak verbs, repeated nouns, and lazy adverbs surface instantly. You edit what you can finally see.
