#WritersCoffeeClub 11.16 — What ancillary writing apps / sites do you find the most useful?
I've written about 20 novels and several novellas using Scrivener. When I need a word processor with formatting I turn to LibreOffice. But that's increasingly rare these days and I mostly compose text in Markdown using neovim.
Pet hate: Microsoft Word, which I pay a license fee for because I get to check the tracked changes on a copy-edited novel ONCE A YEAR and can't risk tripping over a bug in LO.
