Writing can take many forms now a days. Some prefer pen and paper and others prefer word processors. I am curious what [email protected] uses for their own writing.

For me I have used Scrivener before but found it too powerful for my style of writing. I now find myself using Google docs since it can sync to so many places and I can write wherever I go. (If anyone has a FOSS Google docs alternative I am all ears)

So, [email protected], what is your software of choice? If you prefer pen and paper, what does your process look like?

I use a regular text editor (Pluma) or markdown editor (Ghostwriter) for writing

Lately, I've been using Standard Notes for writing blog posts in Markdown.

I do dictation, then edit it in Scrivener.

LibreOffice. It's nice, simple, and gets the job done.
