General question to writers

[bktheirregular]

When you're trying to be creative, what sort of word processor/text editor do you generally use to set down your writings? (I've been trying Word, WordPerfect, Notepad.)

And out of curiosity, anyone still use a Selectric?

Yeah, it's not really possible to open a doc saved in their format in MS Office; however, I save all my files as .rtf instead, so they open easily in OpenOffice or MS Word.

There's also Google Docs as an online possibility. I use it for sending fic to friends for betareading, and to betaread fic written by other friends, and that's highly good for fic collaboration. I can't imagine it wouldn't work well for office stuff.
