I am a bit of a cataloger when it comes to writing resources, so here are some of them. I haven't tried all of these myself, so please let me know if I get anything wrong. If people find this helpful, I have world building and editing related ones I can share too.

• 🆓yWriter: It is not the most sleek looking program, but it works.
• 🆓Google Docs
• 🆓Slugline
• 🆓Highland
• 🆓 Wavemaker
• 🆓 Joplin: The cloud hosting does cost money. Open source alternative to Evernote.
• 🆓 Only Office: This one is good for people who want a private cloud-hosted alternative to Google Docs. It is open-source.
• 🆓 Obsidian: I have started using this for world building, but many authors use it for writing. Within it, you can create your own wiki, and view connections in a cool graph. It has many plug-ins you can add.
• 🆓Anytype: The program is free and private, but for the cloud, you have 1GB of storage, then you’ll need a plan for more.
• 🆓 Manuskript: I haven’t tried this one, but it looks similar to yWriter, but with some different features
• 🆓 Bibisco: A writing and note organizer program with timelines, mind-maps, and more.
• 🆓 Reedsy Book Editor: It is online(not self-hosted/a program download)
• 🆓 SmartEdit: a MSWord alternative for writers that is supposed to have several helpful editing features.
• 🆓 Quoll Writer: Open-source, and has several unique features, such as “warm up session.”
• 🆓 Trillium: Self-hosted and open-source.
• Plot Factory
• 4thewords: It turns writing into a game, where you send your game character on a monster-fighting quest by writing.
• NovelPad:
• Plottr:
• Living Writer:
• Squibler:
• Notion: Free limited version
• Scrivener:
