Tip: Use Scrivener for organized writing
Scrivener is a writer’s tool made by Literature and Latte that goes beyond mere word processing. It provides features that help you stay organized and on-track during the entire writing process. They say it best: “Scrivener is a powerful content-generation tool for writers that allows you to concentrate on composing and structuring long and difficult documents. While it gives you complete control of the formatting, its focus is on helping you get to the end of that awkward first draft.”
I am currently using it to write a novel, but Scrivener can be used by many different professions: researchers, screenwriters, playwrights, lawyers, journalists, academics and students, technical writers, and more.
Scrivener costs $45 and is available for Mac OS X. They just came out with a Windows version, too! A free trial is available so you can check it out before you buy it. It comes with a useful and informative tutorial to get you started in just a matter of minutes.
