Tired of the monotony of modern tech? So are we. Let’s go back to the future. 👻
From Dave Grohl’s see-through guitar to your Nintendo controller, we humans have always been fascinated by the inner workings of the tools that help us live our lives. To that end, let us introduce the new Special Edition "Ghost" Traveler.
An affectionate callback to the futuristic tech of Y2K and beyond, this unique Traveler design features a clear body that will help you see things in a whole new way as you work through the guts of your story.
Transparency At Its Finest
What do the 1939 World’s Fair and your childhood Nintendo controller have in common?
The Clear Craze.
Complex products in clear housing have been wowing audiences since 1939, when General Motors unveiled the Pontiac Ghost, the first transparent car in the U.S., as part of their “Futurama” exhibit. The Pontiac Ghost gave people a peek under the hood — literally — and was supposed to be a glimpse of the future.
Well, we’re not all driving around in clear cars these days. But you probably did notice the Clear Craze in the 80s and 90s.
From Crystal Pepsi to Tamagotchis, translucent iMacs and that Conair Clear Light-up phone that your sister used to tie up the phone line, transparent products became ubiquitous.
(They were also common in prisons, for security reasons, but we don’t expect you to know about that.)
It’s What’s On The Inside That Counts
Feel like a kid again and rediscover the joy of writing without boundaries. When you bring a little play back to your writing process, you’ll never guess where the stories will take you.
So be weird. Do the unexpected. Grab Ghost before it’s gone.
We’ve only made one batch, so get your order in and start seeing things like never before.

We get it. Words ARE hard. But they’re fun and fulfilling, too. And arguably one of the most instrumental aspects of human existence. That’s why you love to write. And that’s why we’re dedicated to creating distraction-free drafting tools to make writing easier. But what do you do when inspiration is nowhere to be found? When your muse is on vacation? When you open Traveler and stare at a blank screen?
You pick up the latest addition to your Freewrite arsenal: the Words Are Hard deck.

Do you feel impossibly distracted in the modern world? “Just turn off Wi-Fi.” “Put your phone down.” “If you’re that easily distracted, you’re not a real writer.” We constantly hear these comments. And when you're a writer struggling to write, those comments can be painful.

Horror books often address some of humanity's greatest fears: danger and, ultimately, death. So why do we willingly put ourselves into stories that so thoroughly explore the topic? And so often in unsettling ways? To find an answer, we spoke with Jake Martin, a member of the Freewrite Fam who spent the last year completing a very unique challenge: writing the unofficial novelization of Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers.
