Daily quest + Getting Started (from the bookshelf)
The motivation widget packs two lightweight quest types into the Your Writing Tree detail: a daily quest (recurring, hit your daily word goal) + Getting Started (one-shot, 6-step onboarding). This article approaches them from the bookshelf perspective; the full feature breakdown lives in the motivation series article.
How to see quests from the bookshelf
Click the motivation widget (top-right of the bookshelf) to open Your Writing Tree detail. Quests live in the right panel:
- Daily quest (visible compact in the widget): a single quest — hit your daily word goal
- Getting Started / Exploration: a "Getting Started 3/6" progress card in the right panel — six one-shot onboarding tasks
Two kinds at a glance
| Daily quest | Getting Started | |
|---|---|---|
| Cadence | Resets daily | One-shot (gone once complete) |
| # of tasks | 1 (hit your daily word goal) | 6 |
| Reward | Streak +1 + motivation card celebration | All-done → one-shot reward (1 AI report + 7-day Pro trial) |
| If you skip | No effect on other features | Stays around; resume any time |
The six Getting Started tasks
The bookshelf detail shows your onboarding progress:
- Create your first book
- Write 100 words
- Set a daily writing goal
- Export your work
- Start Pro trial
- Try the AI Coach
Finish all 6 → the claim exploration reward button lights up.
Why split into two kinds
- Daily quest: builds the "did I write today?" checkable beat
- Getting Started: maps the 6 features you should touch at least once, lowering first-time friction
Different time axes — one is daily reset, the other one-shot — mixing them would blur both.
Are they tied to subscription?
The daily quest is available on every plan (Free and up).
The Getting Started reward (1 AI report + 7-day Pro trial) is a free trial-equivalent benefit; Free accounts get it on completion.
