Fiction Writer
Software to Help You With all Your Writing and
Editing Needs!
Fiction writer
software is the only way to go whether you are planning on
self-publishing your fiction novels or have them professionally
edited and published. Either way you go about doing it, the various
software applications available to you will help produce an overall
higher quality story than by just using basic tools within your
ordinary word processor for your writing.
Normal word processing programs do have grammar and spelling tools
to help point out basic errors; however, these programs are geared
more toward writing letters and essays not fiction novels. The
standard word processor points out most errors accurately, but I've
found that they don't work well with slang and different speech
within the content of your story.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
"Do you have a pen on you?" Gary asked.<br>
"Yeah, in my purse," Susan replied.
Your word processor grammar checker will jump all over the answer to
the previous question because it considers it a "sentence fragment".
By the rules your normal word processor grammar checker follows, it
is looking for the sentence to be as follows:
"Yes, the pen is in my purse."
As you can see, "the pen is" is assumed when she responds to the
question, perfectly acceptable in modern language, but a big no no
with formal writing.
One problem! You aren't writing a formal letter or formal essay! You
are telling a story. There is a Huge Difference! (My word
processor is picking on me here while I write this page. Lots of
fragments! Oh well!
Anyway, you understand where I'm coming from with fiction writer
software and how it can make your job as a writer easier. The
software on this page is designed to help your writing and editing
skills, not slow you completely down to a crawl by telling you
everything you've written needs serious help.
Below are some great fiction writer software to help improve your
writing by leaps and bounds.
The first
application I highly recommend is
the easiest fiction writer software to download and use and is
called WhiteSmoke. It is considered the "all-in-one writer's
solution"! It works with all applications, analyzes your work,
actually makes good suggestions and recommendations to make your
sentences more complex and detailed without changing the meaning of
the sentence, and the list goes on. It doesn't just tell you your
sentence is messed up, it suggests how to make it better. Though
much like the spelling and grammar checkers in standard word
processors,
WhiteSmoke was written by professional writers so you know your
best interests were in mind with this one.
The next software I highly recommend is great for
starting a novel from scratch and is called New Novelist. It is
an awesome novel creation application that walks you through six
steps of development: Creating your title, building scenes, helps
you brainstorm extraordinary settings, character development, add
details to build more content, and wraps everything up into a sample
outline to write from. Talk about making your development job
simple!
