Why Write For Keeps?

Traditional Journaling

Lost Journals

Paper journals get lost, damaged, or forgotten in drawers - digital ones vanish when platforms shut down

No Real Privacy

Social media and apps claim privacy but can read your entries, sell your data, or change policies anytime

Hidden Changes

Most platforms let you edit silently or delete completely - erasing your authentic timeline

Clunky Sharing

Complex export processes, ugly embed codes, or platform-locked content that's hard to share permanently

Digital Death

When you pass, your digital story dies with you - locked in accounts that get deleted or abandoned

Performance Pressure

No edit windows create anxiety - you can't capture thoughts freely knowing you might want to refine later

With Write For Keeps

Permanent Record

Your entries are preserved exactly as written - no accidental deletions, no platform changes, no data loss

True Privacy

Pro users can make entire accounts or individual entries private - only you see what you want to share

Transparent Edits

Pro users can edit entries after the grace period, but changes are clearly marked with timestamps

Clean, Shareable URLs

Free gets random links, Pro gets custom handles - perfect for sharing your permanent record

Grace Windows

Free: 60 minutes to edit/delete silently. Pro: 24 hours. After that, edits are marked and deletes become REDACTED
