Gathering the Tools.

The first and most important thing required to growing a book is to gather the tools. Can you plough without a good plough? How about tractors, sowing machines, watercans? You need the best to get the best. So, what are the tools in writing? Why, there are a few tools. Of course , a pen is one. But it doesn't matter if the bet pen , because as long it has got ink in it, any pen does the trick. If you like typing, you ca. use your Desktop PC, laptop, tablet, phone or whichever you wish. But if these don't matter much then what does?
Well, there are quite a few tools that are available for writers. I believe the preferred term is writing softwares. There are many writing softwares available for budding writers. I'm not much into buying softwares for cause you can write well, with just a word document. But when you need inspiration, these might help. I'll list the free softwares cause I don't recommend paying much. But if you wish, these softwares also have paid versions that can help you.

1. Omm writer - this is beautiful software. Its cuts off all distractions. Besides you can play music in this as well. There are recorded tones. You can choose sounds for each key and much more. It had a paid version as well.

2. Focus Writer - This has a beautiful interface as well. It cuts off all distraction and helps you concentrate.

3.Write Monkey - Another distraction free software helping you to write.

4.yWriter - This is different from the other software given before. This helps to create chapter, write detailed description about Characters. So, if you're writing a novel, this is probably better.

5. Microsoft Word - Of course, you know this. Its helpful if you don't want to write chapters. If you simply prefer to write bits and pieces of a book, then, this is the best.

There are many more softwares out there, but these are the ones that I have used. And , I must say that even without any fancy softwares you can simply open a notepad start writing. Just like how many have done it before.
