Where books
get finished.

A writing app for novelists, on every device you write on.

Shape your story.

Chapters, scenes, notes and research live together in one binder. Drag anything to move it, and nest scenes into chapters and parts.

Every scene is also an index card. Write a synopsis on it, then lay out a chapter and try a new order.

Stay in the scene.

Focus mode hides everything but the words you’re writing, so you can stay with what’s right in front of you.

Hear your words read back.

Meridian reads your draft aloud and follows along word by word. A clumsy rhythm or a missing word is easier to hear than to see.

The voices run on your device, so readback works offline and your writing stays with you.

Watch it grow.

See the words you write each day, your streaks, and your progress across the year.

Set a target for your book, and Meridian shows when the draft will be done given your pace.

Ideas come anywhere. Write everywhere.

Meridian runs on Mac, Windows and Linux, and on iPhone, iPad and Android. Sync keeps every project current on all of them.

Already writing elsewhere? Import an existing project and carry on where you left off.

iPhone, iPad and Android are in testing. To join, email trent@meridianwriter.com.
