I added a very simple sprint timer to the writing page today. A lot of the times I find them helpful to get the words flowing.
Community sprints are still in the further-away future plans, but an individual timer is much more manageable :)
Image text: First sprint announcement!! We'll gather on the app at 8:30 pm BST on the 20th of August to write together for 30 minutes. Tag all your works with inkery-first-sprint and join us to celebrate our sprint time.
We have likes! And a activity/notification centre where you can see new inklings from followed authors :)
Slowly but surely we are moving forward, and becoming a little more complete with each update.
Next: goals, challenges, and badges!
(and other things)
Join us on the Inkery discord, for more frequent updates, feature suggestions & bugs, and semi-regular sprints!
Check out the Inkery Writers community on Discord – hang out with 13 other members and enjoy free voice and text chat.
only two weeks late, but if all goes well, Inkery will have a basic goal functionality tomorrow!
Ok so I've been away for a very long week and Things haven't progressed as they should have, which means we are not challenge-ready yet BUT we will get there SO
Inkery is here if you are thinking of doing one of the writing challenges! With November starting so very soon, there are already so many to choose from, and Inkery could be a place to try one out - especially if you are aiming for short & experimental pieces to practice writing on and start, or keep, a habit going. Like I am :)
...is this me committing to writing more consistently? HA. Yes ok.
WILL ANYONE, SOMEONE, PLEASE JOIN ME.
SOON THERE WILL BE BADGES AND GOALS.
there will be a bug-finder's badge.
Explore storytelling—evolve your writing skill with daily practice and prompts
thinking about adding challenges and goals to Inkery, to make it a space people can do a "writing challenge in november" (now that nanowrimo is burned (again)). we have badges slowly coming along from the artist who did the other icons, and goals shouldn't be too much trouble either...
not sure yet how that would look on the app itself - a separate tab for stories written for the challenge? just a tag that's more prominently displayed? same prompts for everyone?
it might be fairly simple one - write an inkling every day - to start us of. user feedback suggests we're good for getting back into writing :) and from personal experience it can help to warm up with something without pressure (like posting on an app that three people use (YOU could be the fourth!)).
i'm bad at doing them consistently but at the very least we'll run daily sprints on discord, through november.
how's it going today: likes! if you "like" an inkling, you will be notified about it! exactly what everyone wants :)
First batch of bookmarks & new stickers is here, I'm so excited to have them, I want to design MORE now!
Not bad, for something rushed to print without getting paper samples and proofs to check the design works 😅
Inkery update - there is not much to update oops. Bugs are being fixed, code is being developed, inklings are being written! Slowly and surely we are moving forwards.
Also, we have stickers. They glitter and sparkle and I will be giving them away to new friends (and old friends) next time I'm in London :)
...here's my cat also. She's waiting for the next update of Inkery to be pushed so I can finally share the link with more people.
