Hello all,
I've been writing for several years now using Google Docs. It has some features that I like, namely the ability to share drafts with my friend/editor to get her comments and feedback, it's free, and I can write from more than one machine (although I rarely do). Oh, and I know my work is safe from a catastrophic machine failure (yes, I do back up my laptop).
What I'm not so in love with is the spelling/grammar checker. It catches a few basic things but perplexingly does not call out errors that seem obvious. There's also no support for any advanced features such as outlining, character sheets, etc. It's wonderful for a free tool, but I'm curious what others are using.
I certainly don't mind paying for the right software. I use a Mac, if that matters.
Thanks... AW
