WriteItNow
WriteItNow
WriteItNow is the best writer’s organizing software out there for Mac or PC users.
Version 3 has been criticized a bit for not being Mac-like, but its functions are not hard to get used to. It’s only the visual interface that may be a bit difficult for Mac users. Bite the bullet and get going, is what I suggest, since there is no other writing software out there that is effective like WriteItNow.
Version 3 of WriteItNow is terrific as it is, and well worth getting going on now organizing or reorganizing your novel or other writing projects with. I have already used WIN 3 to write my whole book of 92,000 words, The Writer’s Interface, on WIN 3. It’s stable and a blessing to keep you organized, especially if you are an intuitive writer like I am. continue»

Where as a writer do you store all your texts that are easy to find when you need them?
On the Macintosh computer we have universal search for everything on our hard disk called Spotlight, which searches for words in texts or titles also. That search brings then a list of files to choose from on my search word.
But where are my hundreds of written articles and chapters?
They are in MacJournal! continue»

GhostReader
GhostReader can be purchased for $39.95 from http://www.convenienceware.com at the link above. It is worth every penny to an active writer writing articles and manuscripts.
As a book author myself I know that it takes me at lease five read-through’s of my book manuscript before I get every sentence clear and all the mis-spellings out.
As you know, correcting manuscripts is more than correcting.
We revise as well.
GhostReader helps with this in the following ways.
GR reads out your text in its reader using a refined almost human computer voice with nuances of inflection as well as clear diction. continue»
