And by that I mean which tools do you prefer to use? Do you use the classical pen&paper, do you use notepad, word, any other program?
So how does Veeky Forums write their masterpieces?
Google docs.
I think that, if we are talking of writing programs it doesn't matter much which one you are using. I do think that pen and paper is an entirely different experience, I used to do it but not anymore, though I recommend it.
out of the way proprietary shits
LaTeX
Or maybe vim
Notepad.
100% serious, by the way.
I really want to start writing in pen and paper but its so fucking slow and my thoughts always overtake my writing, ending up in either inchorrent shit or just a major shift in subject.
Doesnt happen when I type but i dont like just staring at screen
>inb4 typewriter, I make a fuck ton of typos and shit and I dont want to spend hours bumming around with tipex.
vim is only correct answer, how the fuck do people write without command mode hotkeys?
But how do you organize pages/chapters there? It may work in theory and take little space on PC (who cares about that little space in 2017 desu) but rereading it may be a pain in the ass
sublime
Google Docs is so fucking convenient
Open Office for the actual text
Zotero
Notes app for sketches, ideas, reminders, problems etc.
I hate paper. What's the fucking point?
Ditto
Google Drive lets me edit my my works while offline and automatically updates them when I reconnect to wifi

Can someone tell of me of the origin of this meme:

I use pen and paper to write my diary and LibreOffice to write everything else.
What program lets you create independent columns? say i want to have one column prose and the other verse, but i don't want the former to run over into the latter like it does with word.
I feel like I write better quality work when i write by hand, but it takes a lot more time to put it on paper. I even retaught myself cursive in order to speed up my handwriting and while it's helped a ton, it's still nothing to any word processor
Pen and paper for outlining.
Notepad for constructing prose.
Word or Scrivener for formatting.
Afterwards, I'll blast my writing through a typewriter to check for typos. Also, it looks cool.
It originated from /int/ and /pol/. The abbreviation "t." is like saying "regards from" or "written by."
In the early stages of the meme, it'd usually be appended with a pic related of Alberto Barbosa.

Scrivener and Microsoft Publisher are two applications that I know for a fact lets you achieve just that. There are probably a bunch of free ones, though.
Really Veeky Forums? Twenty-one replies and no one said 'blood and the skin of mine enemies?'
I use pen and paper
MS Word but that's only because I get a free Office 365 subscription as a student. I'd otherwise just use Libreoffice.
I use this and WriteMonkey 3
Just come up with it in my head and force my kids to memorise it. Hopefully they'll write it down.
Every now and then I take pencil to paper, and then if I want/need to I write it on a computer where I try to make things coherent since they are mostly incoherent and not related on paper.

what did they mean by that retarded "e"?
Mircosoft Paint.
Write by hand, edit, then type up, then edit a few more times, then throw it all away.
Writing by hand is best for me to clearly see mistakes and my train of thought. I go over everything and make notes in red pen before typing.
Dear anons, what would you recommend for a program that writes it down digitally (like word) but does it in an already readable EPUB format?
Like when I open my "ebook" on PC I can see it written on pages which I can edit for example.
And not a pdf/word formatted wall of text.
Objectively the only [proper] choice
But...I don't have any enemies
