Word processors and page layout tools are good at what they do - formatting and layout - but they offer no help at all to a writer during the creative process. In fact, the 'gee-whiz' features crammed into these tools do more to hinder writers, getting in the way of their work flow. Put simply, these tools constipate writers;... More Info »

I've tried several of creative writing tools on the Mac, but this one was simple, had a nice layout so you can see all the details of your project, and it's cheap. I just want to write and have all the elements, like characters, places, and plot in my face for easy reference. This app does this well.
