Notes from the desk
Building Maldric in public
I ship Maldric in the open on X. These are short notes from the desk — my words, with a date and a link to the original. Not a blog archive.
Timeline
Tonight's coding session is now over and I need some sleep 😀
Got a nice timeline view in Maldric to help me with planning events, plot lines, etc. I can start to see where my characters are in the stories I'm writing, what events are happening in parallel.
Pulse
I've had some fun today building out a new feature in Maldric. Pulse view lets you analyse your book to get a gauge for dialog, pacing, excitement, dread, etc.
Once it's finished you can scan over the book and see the potential highs and lows for the reader.
beta
If you're an indie author and looking for a new tool to help you write your stories and manage a series bible, then I'd love for you to join my private beta for Maldric.
ownership
Unlike some other providers, Maldric is the tool not the gatekeeper. The manuscript is always yours, no matter what plan you're on you can always download your work.

Maldric helps you build up the lore and the world. It can pluck out key characters, events and lore. Helping you to build a vast and rich world to immerse your readers in.
ownership
With Maldric, the AI never writes the chapter for you. You highlight a passage, talk it through, and you apply what you want. Nothing gets overwritten behind your back.
beta
Calling my fellow Indie authors.
I've been building Maldric a new place for you to write your manuscripts and get helpful assistance from AI. This is for writers, not people looking for a novel generator.
