by Freepik (Illustrator), Abbey Johns (Author)

Writers, I am going to solve a problem for you. You may not even realise it is a problem. I didn't see it for a long time. But the more I wrote, the bigger the problem became. It was wasting my writing time and frustrating. It took away my motivation to write. And it's probably doing the same to you. Two problems actually

1. Writing takes up too much time, especially formatting and finding content. 2. Finding your essential information and tools, when you need them.

How Writers Write If I write, I start, and soon get into the 'flow'. Then I need a bit of information or a tool. Next thing you know, I lose an hour, trying to find it. By which time my motivation for writing had gone and I'm clicking on news stories and viral videos. I got a grip, though. I started with a spreadsheet of all the apps I used. As the list grew I understood why I couldn't find things. I had loads of places to look, email accounts, storage, my PC, etc. In fact, it was a wonder I ever wrote at all. Some Facts Did you know that Android users can choose between 1.6 million apps? Or Apple's App Store has 1.5 million apps? Or that in June 2015, Apple announced there have been over 100 billion apps downloaded from its store? Why This Book is For Writers and Bloggers? This book is the result of hours of trying out different apps and tools. It holds all the best free writing apps and hacks that I use as a writer, and I've researched over the last five years. It's a web writer's almanac. A productivity toolbox. This book will save you time, money, and keep you in the writing flow. This book has over one hundred and fifty free apps, all for authors. Some are tools; some are videos, a few lists and other information that has helped me.

All are relevant to writing your E-book or blog.And just so you know - I have no affiliation with any of the recommendations.

Try Some Apps Out and See the Difference it Makes Just trying a few could make you insanely productive, or add glitter to a bland piece of writing. Besides, you might find it fun, which means you will be motivated to write more too. Some of the apps you may use already, but most will be new to you.Some of the apps are quirky, like the Grimace project. What's that about? But all have the potential to help you write better, quicker and easier. You'll also save time and make money too. Use the free resources to cut down on the amount of work you have to do yourself.

If you haven't already, try Grammarly and Hemingway to get you started. These help with self-editing and identifying passive voice in your writing. This small book could save you hours of potential writing time and keep you on track to finish that book
