Just mentioned yesterday on how Q10 helped me write better and now lifehack.org has a whole list of software and stuff to help you write better with Q10 on top. Check out the list for your self.
Notable inclusions on the list are:
q10: A cool, minimalist full-screen text editor that includes a spellchecker and a couple other nice features. (Win Only; Alternatives: DarkRoom, also Win-only; DarkRoom, Mac-only but not free; Writer, online app)
Zotero: Firefox extension that allows you to capture bibliographic information from web pages, organize citations and documents, and create bibliographies in Word and OpenOffice. Essential for anyone who does research on the web.
Zotero is a fantastic extension for Firefox if you do any research at all. Keeping track of your citations and creating them is a great pain and Zotero tuns that into no problem at all.
Becoming a Writer Seriously: Tom Colvin is a working writer who gives tips and advice on writing, including great in-depth reviews of software and otehr tools for writers.
Freelance Switch: Essential reading for freelancers of any sort, including writers.
How Not to Write: News, tips, and amusements for writers when they’re not writing.
Plus these great ones on the list there are many more. Check it out and see if you can get anything to help you out!

Thanks for picking up and passing the link to Becoming A Writer Seriously. And welcome to the blog world.
The sudden rush of online commentary about q10, which I’d not heard of before the past week, has certainly piqued my curiosity. I’ll check it out. Thanks for your observations about it.
