Free WordPress Theme – Keep Writing
In a world of complex WordPress themes, its very hard to find a simple and minimalistic theme. I have noticed that more and more people who buy or download WordPress themes are developers catering to their clients needs. Even if the end user tries to download and configure a theme, its a daunting task for him as the modern day themes have gotten way more complicated. Developers try to pack too many non-essential features in the themes. Even the documentation for some themes are more than 100 pages. In the early days, there were WordPress themes and WordPress plugins. Now it seems that a theme is a big bloated package integrated with multiple plugins.
This is an experimental WordPress theme being released today. I wanted to go back to the roots and see if there still exists that group of people who like to use bare bone themes. I clearly remember my simpler themes being used by .edu and .org websites. Even today, one of my older themes is being used by the University of Georgia on their library blog.
The new WordPress theme is called “Keep Writing”. This theme has a very simple premise with clean typography. Its a lightweight theme with super fast loading times. To meet the current day standards, its mobile-compatible, responsive and built in Bootstrap. The theme is suitable for authors, writers or just about anybody who appreciates minimalism and aesthetics.

The blog looks attractive and informative… Thanks Speedy Paper
Hi Jai,
Love the theme, it’s simple and clean! Perfect for a writing blog!
I was wondering if there was a possibility of adding a side bar to this theme? It would be great if there was a simple way of implementing that into this theme.
Thank you very much.

Thanks, Love it..
Thanks for this,
I am using this to create my own theme for myself. I love how little css etc there is involved (e.g. font-family only occurs two times in total). In every theme I used so far, I tried to remove many of the features, but if the word margin occurs 437 times in the css sheet, it’s near impossible to get things to look how you want.
The theme even looks good by itself, and I’m using it (just slightly modified) on a page for my company intranet
