About The Novelist
The Novelist
A local-first writing workspace for fiction writers and worldbuilders.
Built around your writing
The Novelist is an independently developed, local-first desktop application for fiction writers and worldbuilders. It brings your writing, research and story knowledge into one workspace, with stable links between records rather than automatic rewrites of your prose.
Panos Sakalakis created it around the needs of writing and organizing stories. The Free application covers core writing and organization; Pro adds optional advanced tools. Windows x64, Apple Silicon Macs, Intel Macs (Beta) and Linux x86_64 AppImage are the public platforms. The app remains in Early Access: development continues, but no future feature is promised here.
