Chapter one

First light

Moonlight returns. We follow. The road home was never a straight line, and tonight it bent toward the river. Somewhere behind us a door closed softly, and the city let out a breath it had been holding all winter.

Wisebits Studio

Write the next one.

Original fiction or fan fiction — Studio is a focused place to draft, tag and publish your stories, chapter by chapter.

  • Chapters

    Write chapter by chapter in a clean, distraction-free editor.

  • Tags

    Tag fandoms, characters, relationships and tropes so readers can find you.

  • Series

  • Publish

    Publish when it’s ready, and keep revising after.

Your writing is yours. Only authors publish here: nothing is copied from AO3 or anywhere else. Export it or delete it in one tap. We never use it to train anything, and we never make or sell audio files of it: listening happens on the reader's own device, like a screen reader, and nothing is recorded or uploaded.

  • How do the voices work?

    Natural-sounding voices, fully on your device, nothing uploaded. Download a voice once and it reads your fics offline.

  • What about podfic?

    We love podfic. This is for the fics nobody has recorded.

  • What happens to my writing on Wisebits?

    Your writing is yours. Only authors publish here: nothing is copied from AO3 or anywhere else. Export it or delete it in one tap. We never use it to train anything, and we never make or sell audio files of it: listening happens on the reader's own device, like a screen reader, and nothing is recorded or uploaded.

  • How do I get my work out?

    Open the work in Studio and choose Export. You get an HTML file whose chapter sections paste straight into AO3's HTML editor, and a Markdown file of the whole work. It works on your phone or in the browser, with or without an account.
