If you’re just starting blogging or are getting ready to write the first chapter of your book, those first 1000 words can be the hardest to write. The pressure of getting them perfect, of introducing the mood or being catchy enough to capture readers’ attention, is huge. If the fear of failing makes you postpone the whole process, try the most dangerous app for writers out there.
Named exactly like that, the idea of this Web-based tool is to force you let those great ideas flow freely. All you have to do is choose how long the writing session will be – from five minutes to half an hour – and then write non-stop until the countdown stops. If you dare stop to revise your paragraphs for more than five seconds, everything you wrote before disappears. It’s unnerving to write round-the-clock but if you manage to survive the process, you’ll get ideas jotted down faster than ever and even finish a blog post in 20 minutes.
In time, if you stick to it, you might be able to perfect your writing – maximum quality in minimum time. Without self-censorship, you’ll dedicate more time to getting out those ideas than molding them on your readers’ profiles.
You can try a similar experience with Flowstate, a tool for iOS and OS X.
