> This is exactly why I use [Liquid Story Binder](http://www.blackobelisksoftware.com/) for writing. It is a fantastic writing program that is incredibly small and lets you do so many of those things within the program and far more (Create Dossiers, galleries, outlines, checklists, chapter builders, etc.). It is so small that you can install it on a flash drive and run it from any computer you like. This is, by far, the best thing that has happened to writers–AFAIC.

Thanks for the reminder! I’ve got this on my list for whenever a deal comes up with that because I don’t do enough free time writing to justify an expense of 50 bux. I liked what I saw of it last year when I played with the trial and wrote a short story to see how LSB would work for me.
