Welcome readers,
writers, authors, and bloggers!
We're glad you're here!
It's the First Wednesday of the month; when we celebrate IWSG
Day in the form of a
blog hop featuring members and guests of the Insecure
Writer's Support Group. Founded
by author Alex Cavanaugh (Thank you, Captain!) and fostered by
like-minded associates, IWSG is a comfortable place to share views and literary
news as we record our journeys. Check out our latest newsletter here.
Our awesome co-hosts this month are: JS Pailly, Rebecca Douglass, Pat Garcia, Louise-Fundy Blue, and Natalie Aguirre!
The optional
question(s) for this month is: What are your favorite writing processing (e.g. Word,
Scrivener, yWriter, Dabble), writing apps, software, and tools? Why do you
recommend them? And which one is your all-time favorite that you cannot live
without and use daily or at least whenever you write?
I use Word for everything, but there are a few exceptions. For instance, the manuscript I’ve been working on for longer than I care to admit. For this, I rely on “specialty” tools and apps “guaranteed” to wrest my buried best from the depths of obstinate procrastination.
I’ve been impressed and grown quite fond of Reedsy
Studio (recommended by IWSG), I’ve tried Scrivener (liked it!) but hadn’t quite
decided if I liked the yearly fee compared to Reedsy, which is mostly free,
when I signed up with Reedsy. I
understand Natural Reader is popular, also free, as is Apple Pages.
All that aside, nothing beats good old-fashioned
conversation with someone you can trust for honest advice, and unwavering
support. Someone to kick around ideas with. If you are looking for something
like this, look no further. You’ll find all this and more, right here at
Insecure Writer’s Support Group!
Wishing everyone the kind of 4th of July
you can’t wait to write about!
