Really useful writing apps for the ipad

Once upon a time I was a naysayer of Apple products. I wasn't necessarily "anti,"  I just didn't see the point of switching from my PC.  Until I just couldn't fight it any longer. My PC would constantly freeze up and in the morning and when I sat down to work I had to wait for the little man on a bicycle that powered my computer to rev up Before I could get started. Annoying.

And so I now write über happily on my iPad.  In the process of switching I have found these three super cool apps for writers. 

The first, and most 'serious writing' oriented is Manuscript

This has been a complete revelation for my writing process. Now, because everyone has a different way to organize when they write I'm sure this won't be a miracle for everyone, but its worth a shot. You can organize all of your different writing projects separately.  It has great chapter, folder, and index cards, and you can export all your writing to Dropbox or wherever you safeguard your writing.

Next up is Chronicle

This app is great for capturing memories- I've been using it as a digital scrapbook for my sons daily pics and cute little things he does. You can add text and pictures and use it as a daily journal. Simple layout and function. I dig it.

Last but not least is Scribble

This app is designed for kids, and I can't wait until my son can use it. The app allows you to draw, add stickers, and write text to create your own books.  They can even upload their books to ibooks. I think this is a cool tool for adults as well if they are writing a children's book-seems like a cool way to draft up and organize ideas.
Happy Writing!
