the end of boring novel planners. 

"I kept trying new novel workbooks & planners, and no matter how pretty they were, they all turned out to be the same material.

They were full of the same endless, redundant questions that made writing a lot of extra work, and didn't inspire any major ideas. and they didn't help with framework or plotting at all.

I wanted to make something truly exciting and helpful for any writer. something that will actually transform your book from a dreamy pile of ideas and random chapters, to a real finished novel."

- brigit hartop, creator of the story machine

skip the tedious exercises found in most writer's planners...

...and instead delve into dozens of unique, visual, and highly stimulating modules including:

  • ​​the cause-and-effect windmill

  • the plot machine

  • chapter elixirs

  • the side plot loom

  • character development module

  • & many more
