This trailed through on one of my writing groups. It certainly looks interesting. Sort of gamer writing on steroids. Apparently if you pause it starts changing the color of your back ground, if you are really slow it honks horns or swears at you or something. Looks like fun. Let me know if you try it. It doesn't look like my style at all. It does seem to crank out pages though for Namo writers.... desktop is 10.00 I think.

Oh yes!
I love the screen slowly turning red and the loud noises. Those get me moving when I pause too long.
Dr Wicked is the stick I use against my Muse and Internal Editor if I don't get my word count by a certain time. For me, it works great as a threat, but MAY CAUSE Writer's Block if used too much. And, most annoyingly, I can not tell the difference between pieces of a story written under Dr Wicked's red sky and those written at the neighborhood pub after a burger and beer.
I recommend every writer try it. Even if it won’t help you write, it is pretty darn funny and might make you laugh.

It does look funny, but I think it would most likely just annoy the crap out of me, as I require silence or near-silence when I write. (Even if the TV is on downstairs, I find myself putting in earplugs.)
