    Limitless potential for writers at any stage of writing process.No update in years. Suggestions: app user ability to add to, remove, create,& basically add the ability for app user to create a "unique to user" experience w/ "user creative liscence".I've scoured the google play apps provided for authors writing books & found it severely lacking which is shocking considering this is such a large & diverse community. If you're listening please contact me :)

    It's worth paying for this app, and you're going to feel like you won the lottery in terms of the lists here!

    Really not worth the money. Use Google, or a thesaurus.

    I've had this app for years and it's still a great resource for writers. Sometimes I just need a quick idea or a character name and this list continues to deliver. Scrolling through ignites creative juices too. Well done. I hope there will be updates in the future.

    Gamechanger! Having these lists in easy reach on my phone is a huge boost to my productivity. No more brainstorming sessions when I'm stuck for a detail, or time-sucking website surfing for inspiration. Now I can use time I'm not at my computer (coffee breaks, checkout lines, toilet time!) to figure out the details, making my writing time so much more productive.

    Have been using it for a few years now and the developers keep adding stuff to the already perfect app. One of the best investments I made. Recommend to everyone.
