Hey, everyone!
I'm Levi. Two years ago, I launched the first version of WriteRush on Product Hunt. It was a simple, free app I built as a passion project to solve my own procrastination problem. It gained a small, dedicated following from people who loved it. But like many side projects, I eventually let it go dormant.
I decided to go all-in and rebuild WriteRush from the ground up to properly solve the painful problem of writer's block. I'm incredibly excited to be back here today to launch WriteRush 2.0.
As a thank you to the Product Hunt community for all the support and for checking this out, I'm offering a special launch discount:

I'm building this in public, and your honest feedback is very helpful! What's one feature you wish a writing app had to help you stay motivated?
Thanks in advance!
Turning writing into a game is genius—habit building just got way less boring, ngl. The progress tracking sounds super motivating, can't wait to try this out!
