Keeping it simple 
The other day, someone asked me an interesting question about the minimalist writing tools I advocate: “Do these things make you a better writer? If not, why use them?”
The first part of the question … well, that’s a mistake many people who don’t write, or who’ve just started out in the wacky world of smithing words, make. No software will make someone a better writer. That’s up to the person.
So, why do I advocate and use tools like Writeboard and JDarkRoom? Sometimes, I just want to get words down quickly and without any distractions. And I can put in the formatting later. With Writeboard (or even Google Docs, which isn’t that minimal), I can do it no matter where I am.
