- Grammarly, which calls itself a writing aide, can assist in those scenarios. This app for authors suggests spelling, grammar, as well as style adjustments in real time and also can even edit for specific categories. Grammarly costs $29.95 each month, $59.95 per quarter, or $139.95 each year.
- Evernote's search grammar is a simple list of terms which are evaluated within a notebook (or 'all notebooks') to find a match. By default, the search results are the intersection of the notes that match each individual search term. This behavior changes if the 'any:' modifier is found in the search.
When you’re starting a new writing project, it’s sometimes helpful to rethink the writing apps in your toolbox.
Even if you’re a pen-on-paper writer for the first draft, you’ll have to translate your writing to a digital format at some point in the process. Here are a few writing apps to help you, broken out by the type of project you might be working on.
3 Great Online Writing Apps
Grammarly has been an immense help for me in spell-checking and fixing punctuation errors in my sentences. I have been using it for years on my WordPress editor and I have missed it sorely on Evernote. This one seems like a no-brainer for the developers, imp.
