Writing Software – Using Technology to Improve your Writing Skills

March 26, 2013 by pfeifer

One of the more popular purchases made by both professional and amateur writers is writing software. Many programs exist to help with plotting stories, organizing research, developing characters, and improving your writing skills. We have created a directory of all the writing publications we could find, and put them all together for you on our Writing Software page.

Note that for those of you interested in writing scripts for movies, television, or plays, we have created a separate directory of Scriptwriting Software.

If you know of a program that didn’t make it into our list, please let us know so we can update our directory. The most current list will always be found on our Writing Software page, but the list of programs as of today is also listed below.

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 7 – Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel, Mammoth Springs Dining Room, Albright Visitor’s Center, and Stops on the Way to Signal Mountain Lodge

Although the Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel was quiet during the night, the hallways were rather noisy in the morning. This was not due to unruly guests, but due to the hotel’s design. The hallways are long and solidly built, but with high ceilings and widely spaced walls. The tunnel effect seemed to amplify sounds, making […]

2010 Top Superbowl Ads – funniest, most unexpected, classiest, most boring, and worst

The 2010 Superbowl game has come and gone, but the commercials remain behind to maximize their ad value for many years to come. Since one of the duties of a blogger is to write about trendy things that do well in search engines, we thought an article about the top Superbowl ads would be appropriate. […]

Wyoming Vacation in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks

Last year (2016) we took a family vacation to Wyoming to visit Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park. I meant to post information about the trip online a long time ago, but I’ve been very busy with other matters that kept me away from this website. While I plan to continue writing on […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 6 – Grant Village General Store, Mammoth Springs, Mud Volcano, Dragon’s Mouth Spring, and Other Fun Stops

Breakfast is not available at our hotel in Grant Village, but there are several breakfast buffets nearby. However, we decided to get breakfast at a small fast-food style restaurant located inside the Grant Village General Store. This turned out to be one of our best breakfast decisions of the trip. Eggs cooked how you want […]

Ignore this post, we are just kicking the tires of the design

Image via Wikipedia This is a test post to kick the tires of our new website, which is still under development. We are working on the design to implement graphics, video, images, and advertisements (we gotta pay for it somehow). Once it is completed, we hope to be informative, controversial, sometimes offensive, occasionally funny, and […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Vacation Review, Day 5 – Old Faithful Snow Lodge, West Thumb, Grant Village, Lakehouse Restaurant

While I still get up early during vacations, my wife and children usually like to sleep late – especially if they stayed up late the night before. This vacation routine was interrupted by housekeeping at Old Faithful Snow Lodge, who decided to bang on the door repeatedly at 8:30 a.m. Considering how far down the […]
