What’s the #1 thing you want a writing app to do better?

If you ve tried writing apps before, what usually breaks your flow?

organizing plot + characters
staying consistent (tone/continuity)
formatting/exporting
research overload
word goals/motivation

If you test AuthWriter 2.1, tell me what felt smooth vs clunky. I m actively prioritizing the next update based on real workflows.

AuthWriter - Your voice first. AI when you need it.

AuthWriter is an offline-friendly writing studio for authors who want structure without losing their voice. Draft in a clean paginated editor, track word goals, build characters/worlds, and plot with drag-and-drop cards. AI research helps with answers and brainstorming—never taking over. New in v2.1: set word-count goals, track progress in real time, and stay on target—alongside improved PDF + DOCX exports, better plotting, exportable character sheets, and refined AI flow.
