Frequently asked questions
How long does it take?
About ten minutes, from telling us your words to your first chapter being ready.
Which level should I pick?
If you're not sure, take the quiz — it estimates your level from what you already know.
Is my word list private?

What does it cost?
€9 per story once the pilot ends. It's free during the pilot, and nothing is charged.
