Write the story. We'll keep the pages.
Tale Spinner is a free writing app for novels and long fiction. Chapters, proofreading, sharing with readers, and export to the formats publishers ask for. Nothing between you and the page.
A page, not a form
A manuscript-width sheet, serif type, and a focus mode that hides everything else. Light and dark themes, zoom, and a docked toolbar that fades while you type.
Chapters that stay in order
Split a chapter at the caret, drag it elsewhere, and the numbering follows. Front matter pages and per-chapter notes live beside the text.
Proofreading passes
Mark paragraphs as proofed and see at a glance what changed since. Spellcheck learns your book's own names and words.
Private by default
Lock a story with a password and it is encrypted in your browser before it leaves. The server stores it but cannot read it.
Beta readers, not editors
Share a story with friends who can comment and suggest without touching your text. You decide who sees what, and when.
Take it anywhere
Export to Word, EPUB, or Markdown in one click. Import an existing .docx and keep its chapters.
Desktop app
The same editor, on your own disk.
Tale Spinner for macOS, Windows, and Linux keeps stories as local files, works offline, and needs no account. Sign in later and upload the ones you want in the cloud.
Free, and yours
