Recently I decided to start writing a science fiction novel. I reserved a desk in my room for this purpose, I also picked up an old Thinkpad X200 on which I installed Lubuntu 24.04 and plugged in a gaming keyboard for night writing. I chose to install a minimum of applications in order to stay focused.

My main writing App for the moment is Joplin

And you?

Are you writing a book or have you already written one?

What type of tool do you use to write?

Do you have some advice to share?

You have a real commitment ! I hope to keep this motivation that is in me. I've heard good things about Scrivener. Unfortunately at the time there was no version for GNU/Linux... But I'll look at it again !
