Hello out there

I recently stumbled over a word processor named yWriter (downloadable from spacejocks.com), it goes beyond MS Word when i comes to support of the creative process in writing a novel (or a full book for that matter).

It breaks the work up in project (the top level), chapters and scenes. Also it lets you define a list of characters and if they appear in a certain scene. And then of course, let you type the text for each scene.

I've only used MS Word for the few stories I've written, but it looks like yWriter might be better. Has any of you, who writes long stories (like JB57, Catharsis, Giannis and others ...) ever used a tool like that, and if so, how is your experiences ??

Take care out there
