All joking aside, there is good freeware to be had for just about any task you may confront. In fact, there’s a lot of writing software in the freeware treasure chest. Here’s one that will help you organize your thoughts and channel your creativity.

The Literary Machine is for any writer who must think critically and creatively and who composes and produces documents as well as anyone who sorts and analyzes information. Of course, this means just about anyone from researchers to novelists to teachers, scientists, lawyers, and more.

This software uses a textual concept-mapping matrix. You can use it to brainstorm story and create characterization and more. It’s supposed to work the way your brain works. There’s a learning curve so be prepared to learn it before you use it.

Takeaway Truth

Freeware is free to download. If you like it, make a donation to the development team.
