@mlanger @RalphBassfeld Well, no. But the right tool for the write job (intended!) for any given person can make it easier/more fun.
@dsilverman @RalphBassfeld I think wannabe writers get too hung up on finding the right tool. I think it holds them back from actually #writing. I blogged about that today.

@dsilverman Nothing will displace Scrivener 😊
@dsilverman @RalphBassfeld Ah, yes. Because it’s impossible to write a novel without a special tool.
