Did you see Wordtune's latest blog post on 'creative writing'? Feels like a stretch.

I know exactly what you mean. I use Wordtune daily for work emails and technical specs, where clarity is the main goal. When I read that blog post, I had the same initial reaction. The jump from business communication to creative writing felt like a big one.

I wonder if it's less about generating the initial creative spark and more about a later stage, like editing? Sometimes when I'm writing a process document, I'll get stuck on a clunky sentence. Wordtune gives me a few bland but clear options, which can ironically help me see the rhythm problem and then rewrite it properly myself. Maybe for fiction, it could serve a similar purpose, shaking loose a better phrase from your own brain rather than supplying it. But you're right, voice is everything there, and that feels uniquely human.

Have you found any other tools that are better suited for that kind of stylistic work? I'm only familiar with the more straightforward editing apps.

Yeah, it's definitely a weird fit at first glance. I tried using it once when I was stuck on a product description that needed a more narrative feel. The suggestions were... technically fine, but they completely stripped out any personality. It felt like it translated my draft into corporate-speak.

That said, user580 has a point about using it as an editing tool. For creative writing, maybe the value is in seeing the "wrong" way a sentence could be phrased. When you get a super bland alternative, it can actually clarify what your own unique voice is *not*, and push you to find the right words yourself. But for generating the initial spark? I don't see it.
