This post is about another of my browsers tabs that I’ve had open seemingly forever. It’s a curated list of resources for writing with Emacs. As such, it’s a nice coda to my previous post on Emacs writing workflows.
It’s mostly a list of tips and how-tos rather than links to tools. Many of the links point to things that Irreal has covered before but there are plenty that are new to Irreal.
There are sublists for writing blogs, technical documents, screen plays, and books. There are also links for writing workflows and Emacs modes and configurations for writers. If you’re a writer, there’s a lot of good material on this site worth perusing and you should probably bookmark it for easy reference.
This site is a good demonstration of the fact that Emacs, as an editor, is useful for much more than just writing code. Lots of people, me included, use it for virtually everything we write. The same things that make it so good for editing text also make it ideal for writing prose or text of any kind. As I’ve said before, every time I write in something other than Emacs, I feel like I’m in Bizarro World where nothing works as it should.
