Because of this website, I managed to start writing more than I should. I write here every day early in the morning to build my writing habits but I find myself fall in love with this website even more. It has been a commitment device for me to keep on writing. Thank you!

Thank you, 750 words – today marks the day I have written at least 750 words every day for 500 days.

I can hardly believe it, but there the badge is.

Thank you for helping me believe in myself!

I want to send my compliments to this site because my life has been significantly enhanced by having the accountability to write every day. However, I am saddened that my 400 plus day streak was broken on June 20th because of a power outage. It happened on a Sunday evening. I had written 689 words but had not yet saved it and certainly not yet finished when the power went down, causing me to lose my internet connection. The power did not come back on until way after midnight at 3 AM the next morning. Unfortunately, I did not complete my 750 words and therefore lost my streak. Oh well, life comes at you fast when you depend on the internet. I still love this site and am now starting on my next 400-day streak.

I am working on writing my first book and am using 750Words to keep myself on track for daily writing goals. Thank you for making this site easy to use and ridiculously fun with badges, and streaks. I love it!

750words.com has been (and continues to be) a wonderful place to put words to a nice blank page, thus emptying your head, keeping up on typing skills, and keeping the creative juices flowing. After innumerable “almosts”, shooting for 500 days in a row, I finally made it back in June. But with that I found that I had been more so concentrating on the streak rather than the writing, so I have decided it is a good time to take a break and reassess. Can’t say thanks enough to Buster and Kellianne for this wonderful site. I have been using it since 2011 and it has been fabulous. I hope to return soon, but if not – smiles to all!!
Thanks
Jim

I’ve really enjoyed using this site. I have started and stopped a few times, but I realize that’s just what I need in those moments. I enjoy the badge challenges, and it’s nice to have a benchmark to try to beat when I do stop and start again. It’s so helpful to do a brain dump in the mornings!

Hey, it will be really great, if you include a most used words cloud for writers in languages other than English. I realize that content analysis is not possible, but simple “most used words” should be relatively simple :) Otherwise, it’s a great service, I love it :)

Today marks my 100th day of writing and I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you! Writing my 750 words a day has become a cherished part of my routine every morning. It allows me to acknowledge and release all of my mischief in a completely safe space. And more importantly it allows me to tap into inspiration so that I can bring my best self forward into every day. Looking forward to the next 100 days…

Simepre me a gustado escribir pero me a faltado dedicación para para convertirlo en un habito, cuando recién inicie me parecía imposible escribir 750 palabras todos los dias, pase que con el tiempo se convierte en algo que realmente disfrutas, es un habito que te ayuda a aclarar tus pensamientos muchas veces y una forma de deshago de tu dia a dia, esta pagina puede ser lo que tu quieres desde un diario hasta un blog de notas para tu dia a dia, te animo a que comiences en este habito que te ayudará a ser mas proactivo, en mi caso que soy copywriter me a ayudado a desarrollar el habito de escribir sin parar, mucha suerte a todos y bendiciones <3.

Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for fixing my accidentally broken streak. I’m working on the night bat badge so I’ve been writing later at night for that. I got to my 750 words the other night then switched screens before it saved. Then I forgot to go back and make sure it saved before going to bed. When I realized what happened the next morning I was devastated. I was going to just start over on my streak but decided to reach out to Buster and Kellianne just in case they could fix something like that. I kept going on my days while waiting to hear back and this morning I woke up to an email saying my streak was restored! So very thankful. 😊

For one thing it learned me to type in the dark. For another I noticed that my keyboard is starting to give a visual statistic of the letters of the alphabet that I preferred to use! After a million words…

I first started using 750 Words ten years ago. After my marriage ended in 2013, I started getting consistent in my writing. Although my streaks don’t look very impressive, my morning routine has three essential parts now: a pot of tea, my ADHD medication, and 20 minutes of writing. Thanks, Buster and Kellianne, for helping me keep it together!

This has been an incredibly hard year or so for most people. To have a place to record your thoughts, and encourage you to keep trying to find a little space for mental reflection in the chaos, has been invaluable.

I started using 750 Words a couple of months ago. I’m a freelance writer, so I’m always writing, but I barely have time to write for myself. 750 Words solved that. In a way, it’s like a journal of my day and also a collection of thoughts, musings, and everything else. Thanks for putting this up! I’m looking forward to writing every day in the years to come with the help of 750 Words.

I have to say, I love the flowers in the support email if I have already completed my words. I love it enough to actually open the email, which is really saying something!! Writing is a gift to myself (and probably also to anyone who comes into contact with my much-less-addled self, after having spent time on my 750) and the flowers are a simple but very felt thank you. Thank you!

One of the first things I did when I signed up for 750 words was change the default font on my own entries from Comic Sans. But it’s still the default on the rest of the site—I do appreciate the levity, but perhaps it’s time for a change to a less intrusive typeface? (Although as I type this, I realize my own strong feelings about type might not be commonly held, and that others might have a sentimental attachment to your default font….)

Thank you for maintaining this simple and very efficient site that allows us to spend part of our day in written contemplation. I tell so many friends (and my writing students) about 750 words, hoping they will take advantage of this tool to help maintain their writing practice.

like Duolingo’s, just enough lee-way to deal with technical issues without having to pester the admins, but not abusable enough to maintain a streak without actually putting work in.

was a keen 750 words writer for a year or so and it really cleansed myself in ways not much else could.
It was me in front of a page just typing along, angry, sad, funny,get it all out kind of writing. No plan, no set guide lines just a blank page.
Boy did i need that.
Four and a bit years later, i come back for a while and let the blank page do the talking while I type.

I just want to say I love this site. I have never been able to focus enough to write very consistently in the past, but ever since joining I actively take time out of my day to ensure that I can get a little writing done. Whether it’s working on story ideas I have, or having what I call a brain dump day, I always feel good knowing I’m keeping my streak alive and accomplishing something I love doing. Thank you!!

I would personally like text reminders instead on email reminders!

Yet another starter stopper redeemed. I am convinced this time this venue is for me. I am grateful for this site and feel in synch with all of you.

Thank you for the space to freewrite! It’s a great way to jump-start my brain in the mornings!

I had been a member about a year ago and stopped because I felt that I was just writing to be writing. I have since started thinking seriously about writing a book. One of the statements I have heard over and over is – if you want to be a writer, you need to write every day. I was finding that very difficult to do without a platform. So, long story short, I have returned to this platform, and I can’t get over how much better my writing is. I can focus better because I have a place that I can brain dump and storm all by myself. I am so glad to be back!! Thank you for being here!

Could Data Labels be made visible to show the % of each feeling or subject in the stats pie charts? I am interested in tracking % Anxious affect across time.

Also, could the Search and Export feature be augmented to allow eg, finding entries with a majority of Anxious or of Affectionate affect?

Everyday I am working on clearing my mind, 750 words is helping me daily is I so choose. Thank you, I am so grateful!
