    "It may be okay for you, but not really for non-fiction"

    November 10, 2011  |   By flrhcarr

    Pros

    It's free to use

    Cons

    hard to set up Yours isn't like the sample
    never sure it's saving properly
    can't edit out sample w/my own info
    Maybe my style is different, I was hoping for chapters & headings
    not taking all day to set up characters & plots

    Summary

    You may find it useful, but I didn't. Writing the author for help was alright, he answered quickly, but said it was set up for non-fiction.
    I detest it so much I still get miffed at seeing it suggested, but I guess it's the only game in town. I'll write up my review on the other suck one I found. Good luck

    If anyone reads this, who makes writing software, have a simple one at a decent price, that'd be nice.
