yWriter 4.0.75

yWriter is a Free story writing software. Writing a book is just like writing computer software.
yWriter will generate a number of different reports from your scene and chapter summaries, from a brief scene list to a comprehensive synopsis. If you update the readiness setting for each scene it will even generate a work schedule showing what you have to do to meet your deadline for the outline, first draft, first edit and second edit.
yWriter also allows you to add scenes with no content - just type a brief description and you can pretend youve written it. This is great for the parts youre not ready to write yet, or for when you get blocked. Skip over that part and come back later! Unfinished scenes, rough ideas ... its so much harder to keep track of them when theyre all pasted into one long word processing document.
yWriter may look simple, but as the author of three books written with this tool I can guarantee it has everything needed to get a first draft together.
Best of all, yWriter is free.
