Fiction block editor
Dialogue, monologue, narration, action, SFX, scene headings, shot direction and notes — plus panel breaks for comics and webtoons.
Local-first writing workspace
The backbone of your book
Inkspine is an offline-first app for novels, serials, comics, manga, webtoons and scripts. Keep private projects on your device — then invite collaborators only when a story needs more than one writer.
No ads
No analytics
Account optional for private work
Write long-form fiction with a story bible that stays with the draft.
Built for long projects
Manuscript and story bible live in one project so the character you invent in chapter two still makes sense in chapter ninety.
Living story bible
Characters, nested locations, terminology, plot threads, ideas and a relationship map. Custom types and fields bend to each project.
Live co-writing
Share only the projects you choose. See presence, cursors and authorship while offline edits queue and reconcile safely.
Structure that scales
Drag chapters, scenes and blocks. Group chapters into volumes and label hierarchy as arcs, seasons, parts or your own terms.
Export & backup
Export to plain text, Markdown, Fountain, Word or EPUB. Back up a library or a single project and restore on another device.
Local first
Private work stays on-device with no account required. Cloud services activate only when you sign in and share a project.
