New Writing Tool: Write or DIE!
Posted on 15 November 2008
An online friend (hey, Suzie!) pointed me to a tool that will help you break through writer’s block: Dr. Wicked’s Writing Lab and the “Write or Die” tool. You go to http://lab.drwicked.com/writeordie.html and enter your word count goal, whether you want the program to be forgiving, strict, or evil (go with ‘forgiving’ the first time), and what you want the mode to be when you stop writing: gentle (alarm sound), normal (horrid song), or kamikaze (it starts erasing your words — yikes!). You set a time frame for yourself and then click “Write.” A window opens up and you have to start typing. Boy, does it work:

One hint, though: Copy your text from the window where you typed it before you click done. The program does follow up with a reminder to save the text to your clipboard, but it strips out all your paragraph breaks.
