WritersBox
Sixteen apps and an add on

Every app, one studio.

Script writing and Writers’ rooms are in every account. Add the rest as the work needs them. Each app is a first version, and each one grows with every release.

A street of colourful little workshops, one for every kind of maker, with the blue box walking by
