April 24, 2025 Storied - the email first journal you'll actually use.

Hey everyone! 👋

I've been wanting to journal for years but nothing ever stuck - so I tried a simpler approach:

  1. I scheduled a program to send me an email every day with a random prompt

  2. Then, I simply replied to the email to log my thoughts for the day

It's the first time I've ever actually stuck with journaling, so I decided to build a side project around the workflow:

📝 Storied is a minimalistic email journal that implements all of that.

  • Daily prompt email

  • Just reply—your response is saved automatically. And some extra features with Pro.

I'm testing the beta for free now: https://storied.email

I failed to journal for years. Then, I set up a simple recurring email every day asking me to journal. Simply hit reply, and wrote. It finally stuck. I built Storied around this idea: receive prompt -> reply -> saved.
