Why The Mac Is The Ultimate Writers Tool Box.

Writing What’s the more personal application on our Macs? Browser, Email, or Word Processor? The latter, right?

Microsoft Word is the crescent wrench of writing, the one-size-fits-all screwdriver of words. Throw it out and find a better tool. Here’s my favorites.

Don’t misunderstand my view. Word is fine, as word processing crescent wrenches go. Like it or don’t, it’s one size for all, take it or leave it.

If it were not for file compatibility with the rest of the business.... (excerpted).

Scrivener is a great software program for writers. It had a recent free update 1.5. A 2.0 version is due to out the summer/fall of 2009. Very reasonably priced and a nicely designed user forum.
