I have a bunch of assignments that are all due really soon, as well as some writing I'd like to work on. Does anyone know any writing tools (Like HemingwayEditor) or any organization or worldbuilding things to help with my writing?

Hi! I don't know if this answer comes too late, but I wanted to try and respond to this question.

I'm assuming that all of your assignments are writing ones? If so, I do think HemingwayEditor is a good one if you're graded on using passive tense/extended sentences. However, while Grammarly can kind of but into every website, if you let it, I think that's a nice quick way of checking your grammar.

In addition, I think Google/Microsoft applications are actually really good places to be able to organize your thoughts. There are a lot of resources you could potentially take advantage of if you're a student/school lets you connect, and there are even more pay-for websites that look helpful. This also seems to give a place for organizing stuff, as a free download of sorts, but I don't know how well that would work for you.

World-building I've found a few resources, such as this one that gives a lot of things you can ask yourself about creating a place and then taking those details in a notebook/online app. This (http://donjon.bin.sh/fantasy/world/) is a place to randomize fantasy worlds if visuals help in making locations/settings.

I hope this helps!

This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.
