# Rooms for writing
Some words need quiet. Others arrive after midnight, with music on and the city still glowing.
The document stays the same. The room around it can change.
Keep it as plain Markdown, then shape the space around the words.

There is a particular kind of focus that only arrives after dark.
Change the canvas, type, and transparency until the room feels right.
