I wanted to share some things that might be useful
ilys
ilys is a website that will only let you see the word you're writing. It doesn't let you backspace or see what you've written. It can be annoying at first but it helps you get what's in your head down. There's also the option to save and then edit once your session is done. You can also select a word goal.
www.ilys.com
Filter words
This page just lists some filter words to avoid. I go through during editing and change these words when I can and I think it really helps.
Realistic injuries
A page about writing injuries for all of those violent writers out there.
