A note from the founder
Your byline.My first rule.
StoryHelm began at my kitchen table, in a conversation with my stepdaughter about how novels get written. We kept returning to one problem: a series can grow beyond what any one person can remember.
I built StoryHelm to read across those books and bring the details back into view. It reads. It never writes. The sentences, the decisions and the byline stay yours.
And when you have a question, you can come straight to me. Email me and I'll answer it myself.
