FoxQuill, a quiet desk for novelists
FoxQuill is an offline novel-writing app built around scenes, worldbuilding cards, word-count goals, and a no-subscription-first philosophy.
Field notes
FoxQuill organizes manuscripts as scenes and uses linked cards for characters, locations, creatures, items, and lore; the site says mentioned cards surface beside the current scene and connect through a relationship map. It keeps the project local as one file, with no account, cloud storage, telemetry, or required AI, and supports imports from Word, Scrivener, Markdown, and plain text. Windows and Linux downloads are visible, while macOS is listed as forthcoming.
