The Friends & Members of 750 Words

I have been a 750words.com member since before 2013, and I find it to be one of the most helpful ways to organize my thoughts, keep on keeping on, and to have a place to experiment with writing haiku.

I am thrilled to see a streak building, to collect all sorts of animal badges, and I appreciate the ability to use and track metadata. I love the nonjudgmental approach, and the knowledge that there are so many writers, worldwide, who are also logging in and working out their thoughts by word and sentence.

Thank you, Kellianne and Buster, for making this safe space, and for all your work in maintaining it.

Anyone who cares enough to create a space for people to write and write often is doing good work in the world. Thank you.

In this crazy 2020, 750 words is the ultimate socially distanced community. We wouldn’t recognize each other in person, but there is this “knowing” when I open today’s blank page to write that others are doing the same on computers all around the world. For all of you, I hope its working…the clearing out, healing, creativity bursts, discoveries, production of words – whatever that might be. I don’t know you but I know you. Thanks to our fearless leaders for this private but positive community. Amy

I love this idea for the times I’m not at my computer.

Can we make this one very visually appealing as well/simple to use?

We need an Android app! 750 Words is AWESOME and an app would greatly increase the visibility and usefulness.

Love the simplicity of 750 words! It’s definitely like a distraction-less journal. I theoretically liked journaling but find it so much easier to type than handwrite. 750 words totally solves this for me without the distraction of having to log in to something like gmail or word. love it!

I love the badges. It would be nice if we could see how many times we have earned the same badge. Maybe there could be secret badges that don’t tell you how to unlock them. For example, using the word “fantastic” could unlock one. Or using 5 seasonal words could unlock a festive badge.

I started using 750 Words a few months ago and I wish I had known about it sooner. I haven’t missed a day since I started (though one day I wrote less than 750 words and my streak reset… tragedy). Some days I write in Portuguese to practice it. Most days I just write about my day or my silly hobbies. It doesn’t matter that I write drivel, and that’s what I love about it. Though I have always been an off-and-on paper journaler and I love the romantic notion of it, I have ugly handwriting, it’s hard to search for specific past entries, and it takes me so long to write basic stuff by hand. Plus I’m left handed so the ink always smudges. 750 words eliminates all those problems and I never feel like it’s a chore. Thank you so much for letting me vent and carry on about my boring life.

Besides offering one-time and monthly payments, could there be an annual payment/membership option?

I’ve gone from using this site as a scratch pad, to freewriting, to composing my papers, to a diary, and all four of those things at the same time. I love trying to break my own streaks!

This site is getting me through a rough patch. Thanks! And thanks so much to Kellianne for kindly and patiently and quickly helping me sort out an issue today. You made my day!

I would like it if the writing could be double spaced

This has been great! No need for any format, it’s hit the pavement (or paper in this situation) and just write. Write freely! I save notes from school assignments, random thoughts, days activities, to do lists, anything and everything. I love 750 words and am grateful that it gives me freedom yet measure to know the bulk of what I am saving or journaling, sort of speak. I have nothing but great things to say about 750 words!

Oh my, how I love this online hygge haven! It is like some kind of wonderful space where only your own imagination can hold you back— or send you forward. And only time tells what that really means.

I have been on this site off and on, throughout and beyond the death of the dear friend who referred me the week prior to her murder— and all the mayhem surrounding it.

This word space allowed me to work out the trauma over three years time. Sorry, Julia, but I cannot do that on the page with a pen. I tried. The tears made awkward work of the ink, and I eventually gave up.

I gave up here, too. Time and time again. Then I came back, and tried again. Not once or twice, but about a dozen times.

I still feel like the Prodigal Daughter, come home. True. But I feel forgiven 70×7, and I feel like $5 a month to have a home here is the smallest price for a space to vent, rage, grieve, and experience your own personal do over or create a new vision.

Yes, CREATE. Because after all the rage, and grief and ugly spew I had to vent out on “The Page” (here) like sicking something up, there was, is or can be something golden to be treasured under the dirt.

What you find here, if you really dig in, might be beautiful. It might even be the real you, which is beautiful indeed.

And it might be buried here, even if you’ve failed to find it elsewhere. It might be underground, buried in a depth of words you never knew you had in you until you started.

And It might be time for you to start digging …

I love the fact that I have 38 delicious Cups of Patronage and I hate it. That means I really need to write more inspired notes, vote for more features or suggest them. Too many cups! I just finished my third straight month of writing every day (plus a few days consecutive in August contiguous to September), which means I’m on day 95 today towards, I believe, my Phoenix badge.

750words keeps me on target even if I don’t feel like writing today because I’m tired, a frog just hopped into my writing nook, I’m scared of the dark, Zombies want my typewriter (not really, they want my Macbook Pro), and a million other reasons I could find not to write. I’m stuck on writing. I’ve written nearly a million words (30,000 more to go) since August 2018, and I took a lot of time off. I can never write a million words except that in about 30 days, possibly less if I hustle and have something engaging to write, I will have pass 1M words. Egads! I can ever write a million words!!

Thanks to the 750words.com team for just making an awesome platform on which I have penned three books and two partial books. I never thought it possible that I could write so much but then again I never thought I would find such a nice community in 750words.com Love this platform and thank all of you for helping me meet my goals.

Thanks so much for this site. I’ve been writing since June 2012, with 8 NaNoMo’s under my belt. This year I went through a lot old entries trying to sort out a long-standing story in my life. Whew. It was all there—so much to read and process. I don’t write consistently except in November, but your site has helped me have a safe place to vent and ponder. Thank you.

I am so grateful for this website and for having found it when I did. Writing is therapy for me and having a goal of writing regularly is huge to keep my mental state balanced.

This site has really helped me clear my mind and help me establish a sense of direction for my day. Great site man. I was considering just moving to google docs when the free trial ended, but I was so used to 750 words and and I think they deserve the donation.
