Getting started
Creating your account
How to sign up and sign in, and what to expect.
Go to inkbreaker.com. The top of the page has two buttons: Join to make a new account, and Log In to get back into one you already have. Both pages let you use Google, Discord, or an email address and password.
Every new account gets a free 7-day Pro trial. No credit card required.
Join and Log In are separate pages
New writers and returning writers go to different pages, so you land in the right place from the start. The Join page is set up to create an account. The Log In page is set up to sign back in. Each page links to the other, so if you picked the wrong one, the right one is one click away.
If you signed up one way, use that same way to get back in. Created your account with Google? Use Log In and continue with Google. The same goes for Discord and for email and password.
If you forget your password
On the sign-in form, choose Forgot your password? and enter your email. We send you a link to set a new one. The link is good for an hour. Open it, choose a new password, and sign in with it.
Adding a password to an SSO account
If you signed up with Google or Discord and later want to sign in by email too, open Preferences → Account and choose Add a password. From then on, either way gets you in. If your account already has a password, the same place lets you change it.
Verifying your email
If you sign up with an email and password, we send a verification link to that address. Open it before your first sign-in so we know the address is yours. Accounts created with Google or Discord are already verified through them.
During onboarding
You will be asked:
- Which writing types you work in (fiction, poetry, screenwriting, and others). Pick as many as apply.
- How often you write.
- What you want to get out of the platform.
Your answers shape your exercise recommendations and your skill focus suggestions. You can change them any time from your profile settings.
Your username
Your username becomes part of your public profile URL and your published piece URLs (inkbreaker.com/username/piece-slug). You can change it later. When you do, Inkbreaker remembers your old username and forwards anyone who follows an old link to your current page, so shared links keep working.
Inkbreaker is an 18+ platform.
