Death by Feature

Microsoft Word is old and has been suffering feature creep for some time. There are so many bells and whistles now; I don’t know how to operate half of them or even what they are for. The designers of Microsoft Word get credit for the fact that I can still turn out documents without understanding most of the program.

My point is that it may well be that everything I am moaning about can be done in Word, but it’s hard for me to find out how. There’s far fewer buttons in Scrivener; therefore much less to learn. It’s a much more restful writing environment, which helps me find the creative headspace I need.

I am not paid to endorse Scrivener (although I wish I was!); there are alternatives out there, some of which are free and open source. It will no doubt amuse you that the guy who designed Scrivener did it to avoid doing his PhD. Now that’s some heavy-duty procrastination that I can really get behind.
