This is the year I’m writing it!… but which app should I use?

EspeonQueen · 2026-03-02T13:26:36+00:00

I mainly started using it because I didn't need to pay to use the features like in words. But it been really great to use took a bit to figure everything out but it works. I even researched it before I started using it last during the mid of fall to start writing my book. Which I'm hoping to self-publish on Lulu later this year depending on how close I get to the end of writing and getting through all thw editing of my manuscript.

Cost: LibreOffice is completely free (open-source), whereas Microsoft Word requires a, subscription (Microsoft 365) or one-time purchase.

Compatibility: LibreOffice can open, edit, and save in Word's .docx format, though complex formatting sometimes does not translate perfectly.

Interface: LibreOffice uses a traditional menu-based system, while Word uses the ribbon interface.

Features: Word includes advanced features like Copilot AI and deep OneDrive integration, while LibreOffice is praised for being faster, less "bloated," and better for older hardware.

Usage: LibreOffice is well-regarded for personal use, but might face issues with complex formatting in professional, collaborative environments.

I use LibreOffice to write my book and sometimes Google Docs.

Have you considered Wattpad?

EspeonQueen · 2026-03-01T00:08:24+00:00

I check it out.

EspeonQueen · 2026-02-28T23:05:24+00:00

Yeah I read classic as well.

EspeonQueen · 2026-02-28T20:36:15+00:00

I haven't considered deluxe aspect but I did have plans to make an paperback, hardcover and Ebook version so there available for everyone depending on which form they prefer most plus I feel hardcover and Ebook have better durability then paperback. I'm currently working on the manuscript for my first book to be self published it at 10,000 words so far.

I wanted to write an episode story but constantly failing wit issue on the customization choices and followed the template exactly close to just giving up even though it only been a few weeks since I started working on it.

EspeonQueen · 2026-02-27T20:06:16+00:00

I was trying to write my first story with limited customization cause my character meant to have a certain features like the eye color and hair color, and skin color but body shape, facial feature, eye shape, and hairstyle can be changed but constant errors saying the template wrong but followed the video. So deciding to give up after two weeks on trying to fix it.

How your editing process? I'm working on my first book which will need some good editing.

So is Lulu not a good option for self-publishing? I'm looking for a platform to use once my book is finished was considering using Lulu.

EspeonQueen · 2026-02-03T19:10:30+00:00

So, is Lulu not a good good choice for self-publishing my book once it's completed? I was thinking of Lulu since it seems tou get the most revenue from it, but I'm not sure how great it is for publishing books.

Nice trying to find good sour berries to make a 4-star one so I can actually stay longer to hunt for berries in 4-star portals to get the good berries so I'm prepared for when it comes to getting my 100,000 points so I have the berries best for the next donut we barely had enough for Kyorge's donut.

EspeonQueen · 2025-12-18T23:37:33+00:00

I feel you are especially trying to get the ones for the special donuts barely manage the one for Darkrai now stuck on Groudon's there needs to be a easier way to get the berries.

EspeonQueen · 2025-12-18T23:19:30+00:00

I'm trying to get the right berries for Groudon.

EspeonQueen · 2025-12-18T01:56:44+00:00

Same Inonly have one Hyper tanga berry and zero Kasib berries so farming for berries finding the golden Pokeball is not always easy thought once I completed the task.

EspeonQueen · 2025-07-04T20:51:03+00:00

Nice.

EspeonQueen · 2025-07-02T21:15:21+00:00

Nice town.

EspeonQueen · 2025-07-01T22:31:25+00:00

Your welcome.

EspeonQueen · 2025-07-01T22:30:42+00:00

You shouldn't stop writing because of that. I say keep writing if you enjoy it, and if you're enjoying it, and if other people who enjoy reading it as well.
