Writing Tool

A lot of professional writers use Scrivener. You can, to a small degree, use Evernote to perform many similar tasks.

What Evernote can't do:
  • Full Screen Editing, a la Writeroom (I've submitted a feature request for this
  • Sub Notebooks (this was in Evernote 2, but I would expect to see this return in Evernote 3 at some point
  • Document Generation
  • Outlining
You can, however, use notebooks and notes to manage your draft and research processes. So while Evernote may not be able to reproduce the most hard core functionality, it should be good enough for casual writers and bloggers.

Notebook: Draft
Note Titles: As you see fit
Tags: As you see fit
Body: Your writings, segmented as you see fit.

Notebook: Research
Note Titles: As you see fit
Tags: As you see fit
Body: Put images, text and links as appropriate to your writing project.
