Start with one clear place to write
The first useful screen shows the outline, the draft, private notes, and the public page. You can move from a chapter to a post without changing tools.
Drafts stay private until you choose to share them.

The new W
A roomier place to write.
Drafts, notes, readers, and safer copies now sit closer together, so the work can keep its shape while it changes.

Carry old drafts forward
Bring older writing into the new W and keep going from there.

Keep a page private, ask for a trusted read, or publish when it is ready.

Keep a spare copy
Save a copy before the bold edit, and go back if you need to.
