If you know of anything that should be added to this list, let me know!


To supplement the word processor post I did several weeks back. These are specifically minimalist processors which can benefit someone easily distracted… someone like me, basically, and others.

There’s also Zen Writer, which I’ve seen doing on the rounds on here lately.

It’s not just distraction.  Not everybody gets along equally well with a given program.  If you find your mind wandering when you write in Word or GDocs, or if you start feeling stuck in a rut or like you’re losing the thread, try switching to a different word processing program.  I’ve found that the change of context can shake the dust off my brain and get me going again, and sometimes my mood (or a given story) is better suited to one program than another.

It’s always nice to have options. ^_^
