A visual interface that lets writers paint tone attributes onto characters, helping them catch stylistic drift before it becomes a structural problem.
My contributions
- A visual metaphor for character tone that makes stylistic drift visible during drafting
- An interaction design that separates intention-setting from text editing
- Formative study with fiction writers on how tone inconsistency is currently noticed and repaired
