KANONARA

Free tools for long-form fiction writers

Writing a long story requires keeping hundreds of details straight. These free, browser-based tools help you audit continuity, plan serial release pacing, build character profiles with temporal state history, and estimate self-publishing royalties. No sign-up required.

Continuity & Plot Holes

Novel Continuity Self-Audit Diagnostic

A 7-point self-assessment tool evaluating your manuscript draft against the 7 core contradiction failure modes: character limits, timeline logic, item states, knowledge ledgers, world rules, spatial travel and relationship evolution.

Output: Readiness score (0-100%), risk tier, and copyable Markdown action plan
Web Fiction Pacing

Web Serial Schedule & Buffer Calculator

Plan your release schedule across Royal Road, Patreon, Scribble Hub or Substack. Calculate required weekly word commitments, drafting hours, Patreon advance margin, buffer runway weeks, and burnout risk index.

Output: Buffer runway in weeks, burnout safety index, and schedule summary
Character Architecture

Character Profile & State Builder

Build structured character profiles with dated condition tracking, inventory states, knowledge ledgers, ability limitations and a 3-beat arc. Preserves state changes across chapters instead of overwriting them.

Output: Formatted character sheet with live Markdown copy and structured JSON export
Self-Publishing Economics

KDP Royalty Calculator

Estimate Amazon KDP earnings before you price your book: Kindle royalties at 35% and 70% with the delivery deduction, paperback royalties after printing costs, and Expanded Distribution, using Amazon.com rates as KDP states them.

Output: Per-sale ebook and paperback royalties, printing cost breakdown, and sales totals

Integrated into the Kanonara writing workspace

While these standalone tools run independently in your browser, Kanonara integrates them into your writing flow. Our Story Doctor continuously inspects chapters as you draft, our Story Bible maintains dated state records automatically, and our fixed A6 bunko layout displays the exact pages your readers turn.

Free during early access. Your writing never depends on an active internet connection.
