A few fresh updates around Writing.Com

We’ve been busy behind the scenes making things smoother, faster, and a lot more fun to use. Here’s what’s new:

Crossword Puzzles Are Fully Rebuilt

Our crossword system has been completely refreshed for a better solving experience!

Fill in answers directly in the crossword grid OR from the clue list
See correct letters appear right inside the clues as you go
Fully mobile-friendly (finally 🙌)

Give it a try and let us know if anything looks off in "Bug Reporting" !

Costumicons Are Easier to Find & Faster to Use

The Costumicons page has been updated and modernized!

New inline search to quickly find what you need
Added keywords to all 600+ costumicons

No more endless scrolling to find what you need!

Print Your Books

You can now print Book items directly from Writing.Com!

Use "Print Book" from Item Tools
Or click "Print" from the Manage page

(Available for your own books or ones you have edit access to.)

Virtual Dice Got a Major Upgrade

This one got a big modern glow-up and opens up a lot of fun possibilities:

Roll numbers, custom lists, or coin flips
Use WritingML in lists ({item:}, {user:}, and more!)
One-click re-roll + copy results
View stats like minimum, maximum, average, and median
See repeat matches when rolling from lists
Open in a popup for a clean, standalone roller so you can continue working in another window

Perfect for prompts, character picks, or just letting fate decide

As always, thanks for being here and being part of Writing.Com. ❤️
