Narraloom
Write the novel. Then set it properly.
A desktop application for planning, drafting and finishing a novel — and for typesetting it when it's done. Your manuscript lives in a folder on your own disk. No account, no cloud, nothing uploaded.
What it does
A manuscript, not a folder of files
Parts, chapters and scenes you can reorder by dragging. Every scene carries a synopsis, a status and a point of view, so you can see the shape of the book from above.
Your world, cross-referenced
Characters, locations, items, factions and lore — with aliases, portraits and relationships that are recorded in both directions. Name someone in the prose and the link is made for you.
A real ebook
A styled EPUB 3 with drop caps, ornaments and five embedded book faces, with proper semantics so a reader's contents and landmarks work. Tested on actual e-readers.
A print-ready interior
Trim sizes, mirrored margins and gutters that satisfy print-on-demand, typeset by a real typesetting engine rather than printed from a browser. What you preview is the file you upload.
Built for drafting
Typewriter scrolling, a focus mode that washes out everything but the page, timed sprints with word goals, and a spell check that never flags your own characters' names.
Yours to keep
One purchase, no subscription, no account, no telemetry. Your project is a plain folder you can copy, back up or open on another machine. Export to DOCX or Markdown whenever you like.

We build what we needed ourselves.
Everything here started as something we wanted and couldn't find — then got made good enough to hand to someone else. We work slowly, ship when it's ready, and keep things small. No investors, no growth targets, no reason to sell your data.
