Working on a novel or other writing project from multiple computers can be a hassle. My Writing Spot makes it easy. It works well as a standalone app, but really shines when coupled with the excellent free web app of the same name - keeping your documents in synch painlessly.
Perfect for NaNoWriMo! The word count feature lets you know exactly where you stand. If you're out and about and have a few minutes to spare, you can dash off a few hundred words. Give your daily word quota a boost!
My Writing Spot is also handy for keeping track of To-Do lists and notes. Struck with an idea while you're away from your computer? Capture it in My Writing Spot! Since you can have as many documents as you'd like, the possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
Unleash the full power of My Writing Spot by coupling it with the web application of the same name. All you need to access the web app is a free Google account.

What's New in Version 1.0.9
Bug-fix release. I put on my bug-stomping boots and squished away!
What was vanquished?
Fixed a problem that would cause the app to crash when deleting a document. Also fixed a layout issue that would cause the bottom of a document to be hidden. A few other minor issues are also resolved with this release.
At this point, all known issues are resolved. Now I can turn my focus to new features!

Folders
I love the app. However, I work on more than one project at a time. I really need to be able to organize things into folders for different projects. Again, I'm really loving the app. It's very well designed.
3/27: Just noticed something else. It really needs an Undo button. Just a one step. In case I highlight a paragraph and accidentally delete it. (Yes, that did happen.)
Awesome
I like this app a lot but it needs some way to organize your work I think something like in iBooks you can arrange the books into collections would be awesome because I not only use the app for novel writing but world building and it would help a lot with folders or categories. But otherwise this app is the best for
writing I particularly like that you can lock your work with a password.
For serious writers nothing better
i travel a great deal and use is app to write articles, lectures, and all manner of notes. When i downloaded this app and began using it, my iPad finally became the road warrior tool I hoped it would be. This is the first review I have ever been moved to write, by the way.
Document handling is a breeze. i routinely email back and for across Outlook, my iPad, and my laptop (there are more sophisticated ways to link but this is so easy that I never take e trouble).
Btw, for Hebrew typists, the seamless integration with the Hebrew keyboard in the latest release of he operating system makes this a wonderful multilingual wordprocessor.
Bravo!
