Write the story. We'll keep the pages.
Tale Spinner is a free writing app designed for creative writing for short to long form prose. It supports both local and cloud storage, with optional encryption for protecting your intellectual property. It also supports sharing excerpts with beta readers, fellow authors, or editors.
Minimalist Writing view
Keep the focus on writing as you're drafting without the app getting in the way.
Organize Chapters
Split chapters with automated numbering or titles.
Go Beyond the First Draft
Track your progress as you proofread, edit, and revise. Previous versions are stored automatically.
Cloud Storage with Encryption
Lock a story with a password and it is encrypted in your browser before it leaves. The server stores it but cannot read it. This means your work is never visible to anyone but you and people you choose.
Get Feedback
Share a story with friends who can comment and suggest without touching your text. You decide who sees what and for how long.
Compatible With Your Existing Work
Export to Word, EPUB, or Markdown. Import an existing .docx and keep its chapters.
Desktop app
The same editor across different machines, or the web.
Tale Spinner for macOS, Windows, and Linux keeps stories as local files, works offline, and needs no account. You can work locally, or with cloud backups.
Free, and yours
