"The WriteStories platform makes writing much easier for children, serving as a great tool for reluctant writers and a fun way for less-reluctant writers to develop story-writing skills. The books all have great illustrations that should stimulate children’s imaginations. And even if their stories don't always hang together logically, children will gradually absorb story-writing skills that should improve with practice."
"I wasn't sure what to expect from my kids when I introduced them to WriteStories by Scriptive. I wondered if the children's book illustrations would really inspire them to write their own stories. And I wondered if they would enjoy the process and want to do more. Their response was beyond my wildest imaginings! They love it!"
"It's no secret that getting your child to love reading and writing can be a little bit of a task, and sometimes we have to think outside of the box. Write Stories provides a fun and interactive platform where your child can craft their own stories using quality illustrations as inspiration. This is a useful resource for emerging storytellers looking for more ways to express their creativity."
"My girls love writing but I wasn’t sure if they would take to this program...They were so excited to start! I was thrilled to see that all my children loved the program – ages 6 to 14! I loved watching their imaginations come to life on the pages of the stories they had written. If you have children, I would highly recommend this program – it’s incredible for both reluctant writers and experienced writers."
"Your child can use the microphone feature and they can actually tell their story to the program and the text will appear on the page. They can then edit it and submit it for review. So if you have a child like mine who struggles with writing, check out WriteStories by Scriptive today."
"In a nutshell, children choose a beautiful picture book that looks interesting. None of the books have words. Your kiddo provides the words...WriteStories is different. In 17 years, I’ve never seen something like it. It’s exciting and fun and doesn’t feel like writing at all!"

Currently, the program is accessible on laptops, Chromebooks, and desktop computers. We are working to optimize WriteStories for tablets and mobile devices, so those options will be available in the near future.
We are designing the program to be ideal for children who have emerging typing and writing skills (it’s a great way to get some typing practice in for your students!) - around 2nd-6th grade. However, younger children will be able to utilize our speech-to-text features to be able to create stories until they develop typing/writing skills.
Scriptive believes that books can have a profound influence on the lives and development of all of us, including our children. Because of this, Scriptive is very careful with what books are chosen for the Scriptive library and are vetted by our team of experts. Scriptive guarantees selections in our library to be family-friendly and age appropriate.
As to content, there are also things that we actively seek. We enjoy books with powerful messages that teach kindness, respect, bravery, trustworthiness, helpfulness, cheerfulness and hard work. We enjoy beauty in writing and illustrations, positive messages, and wholesome fun.
However, there are things we actively stay away from. We avoid inappropriate and sexual content, and profane language and innuendos. We avoid stories that are disrespectful or have inappropriate behavior to any group or individual. We also stay away from political messaging.
We offer two plans for the homeschooling family:
1-2 children - $13.50/3 months or $45.00/annually (16% savings)
3-5 children - $16.50/3 months or $55/annually (16% savings)
