The options for available writing software may be growing, but so are the price tags for these highly sought after programs. Some of them are priced high enough to ruin a starving writer’s entire week. The sad truth is that none of these programs will help us write better, but they can help us become more organized, efficient, and structured writers. Although I own two commercial writing programs, I’m still constantly on the lookout for free software that can closely match the feature lists of their commercial brethren. Actually, I’d be just as happy with something fairly easy to learn that can help me manage my writing notes and structure in an effective manner.
Here’s a list of twenty writing programs I stumbled upon and bookmarked at some point. I have to admit I have not personally used or reviewed any these programs, but as far as I can tell, they will cost you exactly $0.00 to give them a try yourself.
