Product review (Sorry Mac Only)

   Posted by: Scott   in Writing

I’d like to review a product that I have been using for quite a while CopyWrite. I have been using this program for months, I was lucky enough to find it on the Apple OS X downloads page while I was looking for a nice writer assistant type of program. I was sick of Word and I wanted something that would help keep me organized and be a little bit more functional for my needs.

It does everything I need it to do in a tight very easy to learn interface. CopyWrite allows me to make notes in the notes tray, lets me break up my writing into chapters and will also allow me to save multiple pieces in one document. It has a built in spell check and word/character counter. I can also add outside url’s for quick click reference. The best feature in my opinion is the full screen mode. I find this especially useful, since I’m easily distracted by chat and other things on my desktop. In full screen mode, I can concentrate totally on my writing, no distractions. It also allows you to export your finished work, with or without your notes, into many different formats. It is fully customizable in both how it displays your work on screen or when you print or export to file. CopyWrite also features a comprehensive backup that allows for saving while working and the ability to backup to a different location when you close your file.

It is a very nice program and I highly recommend it to anyone who takes their writing seriously and are on the Mac platform.
