Title: I have great ideas but can't spell them
Post by: Buck Turgidson on June 09, 2011, 11:07:23 am

Can someone recoomend a freeware software for structuring & writing a novel (ie with storyboarding)?

I use yWriter5. The only thing wrong with it is that it doesn't have built in spell check, which is a plus now that I think about it. I don't have an annoying red line tonic up under half my character names.

EDIT: If you're interested I have the link to the site to down load it

I know but it's annoying. And Word is set up for reports and essays anyway.

Cool - I will download it and play around with it.  I like the focus on scenes.  Any other suggestions?

Not really, that's the only one I can think of, I think he said he wrote the program because he couldn't find any software to do something similar.
