My favorite writing tool is you Joyce. Since we spend time together in conversation I often say something and it ends up in one of your posts or articles. Like the article you wrote on our friendship sprinkled with my cheering for your writing, art and now substack. That’s why I’ve had you on twice (to inspire others to use their talents )on my PeacePodcast.org Thank you for asking.
I have Libre Office, which is a 'fork' or version of Apache Open Office. I have Zotero added into my Write app, but have not made use of is functions in that app yet. I do most of my writing directly into SubStack at present.
Floating gardens are amazingly concentrated for production. I like how they walled off those salamanders. But I wonder how they handle the mosquitos!!
I fired up Zotero a year ago when weedom began. It's pretty great for storing info and I haven't even scratched the surface of its ability to integrate into writing software.
A fabulous video on the Floating Gardens of Xochimilco that I first visited with my parents when I was 18. Now, 50 years later, I think of returning as an Eco tourist with my husband.

My favorite tool is simply MS Word. I use an older version because I don't need all the new bells and whistles, just the basics. The reason I'm so (enthralled?) is that I used to use a typewriter and hated the idea of making corrections because sometimes it involved redoing an entire page. When computers came along, and word processors, I was ecstatic.

Maybe I'll check out Zolero, could be useful.
LOL -- I just got the reference to 'screwdriver' and Zolero! :)
your curiosity and zest for life and creative expression always inspire me!
