Thread: Software For Writers

Do you use a program to aid in your writing?

I am thinking about getting Whitesmoke. Do any of you use Whitesmoke? Is it worth the cost?

Never heard of Whitesmoke...

I've never had much use for writing programs in general, but why not use one of the many free programs out there?

Liquid Story Binder
yWriter5
etc.

Hmm. Are they good?

I just use Word, or Wordpad, or actual pen and paper. Usually if I'm in the mood to get all fancy, I just buy a pretty notebook. Because the prettier the notebook, the better the story, am I right or am I right?

Like I said, I don't use writing software. But since they're free, what do you lose by downloading them and giving 'em a test drive?

I don't use anything except for Microsoft Office Word 2007. It gets the job done. That or I use pencil and paper. I don't like to use Notepad because it's just not as organized to me.

I use Word for all of my main writing and do small snippets in notebooks, and I completely agree. Pretty notebooks make my snippets sound so much better >.<
