Writer has all the features you need from a modern, full-featured word processing or desktop publishing tool.
It's simple enough for a quick memo, but powerful enough to create complete books with contents, diagrams, indexes, etc. You're free to concentrate on your message, while Writer will make it look great.

It's free to use with no license, it's still being developed and it's easy to use.

Good to know! Been looking at an alternative to Open Office, which just keeps crashing. Will give LibreOffice a shot! Thanks!

This app is so easy to use and I love all of the features. I'm a super user of Microsoft office but Libre Office is #1 in my book.

LibreOffice Writer is a powerful word processor, and in my opinion, far superior to Word. It's fast, lightweight, easy to learn and use, and can accomplish anything from simple lists all the way up to formatting a book. All of our tech how-to guides I've created for our IT department and customer service team have all been done entirely in LibreOffice Writer, with no difficulties.
Once a great program. The current releases are very slow. Opening multiple documents takes seconds. Saving large documents can take up to a minute. Memory settings are gone from the menu, though that only partly helped. This is in need of some serious review. If MS Word can open 10 1MB+ documents in less than 5 seconds the trimmed OO/Star line should be more than capable. For those wondering I have 64GB ram and a core i5 on a current iMac. This is a sad turn of releases.
