The Inkbreaker editor

Focus, spotlight, and sprints

Quiet the page, light up the line you are on, and write against the clock.

Some days the work is staying in the chair. Inkbreaker has the tools that help you do it: a focus mode that clears everything but the words, a spotlight that dims all but the paragraph you are writing, and timed sprints with a goal to write toward.

Press the focus shortcut and the room goes quiet, the toolbar and chrome step back, and only the page remains. Turn on the paragraph spotlight and every block but the one your cursor sits in dims, the way iA Writer reads, so your eye never wanders up the page. Start a sprint of five, ten, fifteen, or twenty-five minutes, with an optional word target, and a small pill counts down your time and the words you have written, then sums up your words, your pace, and whether you hit the goal. And you can set a word goal on a piece that the progress meter greens the moment you reach it.

Focus, spotlight, and sprints

What it does

  • A focus mode that clears the page to just your words, on a keyboard shortcut.
  • A paragraph spotlight that dims everything but the block you are writing.
  • Timed writing sprints with an optional word target and a live countdown.
  • An end-of-sprint summary: words written, words per minute, and goal met.
  • A per-piece word goal that turns the progress meter green when you reach it.
