There's a stripped-down, e-ink word processor similar to what you're describing called Freewrite (https://getfreewrite.com/ https://getfreewrite.com/). It launched on Kickstarter as Hemingwrite a couple of years ago. It's got an e-ink display and syncs documents over WiFi.
I think the real selling point is a distraction-free venue for writing, but the e-ink display could be a plus as well.
