Discussing the project in a public place like this helps our small team (@matt) save time answering common questions, and makes it so more people can benefit from / join our conversations.

And if you want to support the project, please feel free to help others in the community. Any help you can offer is welcome and appreciated!

We're working to build a suite of tiny, focused tools that all work together, and share the same simplicity and privacy-awareness of Write.as. This little #blogging platform is just the start.

Now you can #follow along with each of them right here in the fediverse:

@readwriteas - stories from Write.as
@snap_as - photo and album hosting
@htmlhouse - HTML hosting

Future:
@draft_as - collaboration on text
@jot_as - private, encrypted notes

For #NationalPoetryMonth this year we want to showcase original poetry on our writing community @readwriteas. Take some time this month to submit your own original poetry, all with no sign-up needed: https://submit.as/cues/npm-2020

Just released some updates to our billing system — now all of your add-ons will show up on a single bill, and you can see your exact costs for the next cycle.

Hopefully this makes it easier to plan out your expenses and see exactly what you're getting with Write.as.
