In April, everything counts!

How is it going? I'm going to use the month to give some adrenaline to the WIP. I'm starting out with a few days of reading to remind myself of the voicing etc.

Only kidding. I’ve actually written 10.5 books as a direct result of my t...

PPS - I had to look up what “jank” means. Thank you for teaching me a new word!

Yeah. I guess if Word does absolutely everything you want, then all the wonderful writing features that many of us love *would* feel like bloat — especially if the basic paradigm of writing in one way (structure/format) and outputting in another doesn’t appeal.
