Every Monday, everyone gets a writing prompt. You have to answer it in 200 words or less. You can see what others have written, but only after you submit your write-up. When the week is over, other people's writings are no longer visible.
Hey Product Hunt! I've always wanted to be a part of an online writing community, but I either found them too negative or too silent. So I decided to build a new application that is focused on participation.
Every Monday, everyone in Tavern gets the same writing prompt. The only way to see what others have written about it, though, is to answer it. Once you do, you can see all the other answers and give them ale (likes). Intentionally, the number of likes a post has been hidden until you like it, so you're not affected by that.
My hope is to foster a community that you can open a few times a week, learn something new, have fun reading other answers, then close it until next Monday. It's focused on positive feedback and since everything is only visible for one week, there's nothing permanent if you don't like one of your write-ups (it'll be gone next week).
It's the kind of community I wished existed when I was taking up writing. I hope it helps you overcome writer's block and find inspiration ❤️
I tested Writers' Tavern in beta, despite only with one prompt - it made me think. I have a block to write sometimes, but knowing there is a prompt landing every monday and I can put my thoughts on digital paper and see other people thoughts helps my sanity.
A great idea for writers who want some variety and a simple way to flex their creative muscles. Very glad Writers' Tavern prioritises quality and community over mindless growth and engagement
