My favorite writing tool right now for books and all things literature is Scrivener . It’s one of the best tools for moving sections of the chapter around. I also like it’s corkboard feature and some other great things that are just for writers.
Any time I am about to start a new book, especially a nonfiction book, I turn to Scapple. It’s a mind mapping software that’s very easy to use and quite inexpensive. It gives you the best visual tool to see how everything is connected in your book.

I like to use a timer when I write so I can figure out ho and how much of a word count I can rack up. The best timer I found for me, completely customizable, with audible alarms (very helpful so I don’t switch to that program to check my time) is Snap Timer. It’s completely free to boot!
