Hemingway App helps writers clean clutter from their work
American novelist Ernst Hemingway revolutionized writing with his “blunt, descriptive, concise prose.” Today, however, clear and bold writing is hard to come by, replaced instead with verbose, over-saturated writing. Brothers Adam and Ben Long recognized society’s departure from clear, succinct prose, and decided to create a free web app to help writers simplify their work. Launched in late 2013, the Hemingway App allows users to enter a body of text into its processor and then analyzes the text, highlighting areas that can be simplified.
