I’m just soooo jealous of Scrivener owners, but darn it, I don’t own a Mac.

Windows alternatives: PageFour, Liquid Story Binder
Still more alternatives: Writer’s Cafe, yWriter (free), WriteWay, WriteItNow and more…
*For MS Word diehards, “Chapter by Chapter” (S?bastien Berthet) is a great app to organize chapters/scenes kept as separate documents (and it’s free!)
* An honorable mention goes to the wonderful SuperNoteCard.

Still, I keep searching for the Holy Grail of Windows Fiction Software. Recently I stumbled upon two blog posts discussing Wiki and creative writing:

WikidPad: “Open Source Life: wikidPad, logical tool for the creative”—> http://jeremyosborne.com/2007/10/20/open-source-life-wikidpad-logical-tool-for-the-creative/

ConnectedText: “ConnectedText - Scrivener for Windows?”—> http://takingnotenow.blogspot.com/2008/06/connectedtext-scrivener-for-windows.html

...And ZuluPad is cute, too…

Hmmm… I’m aware of the fact that a pen(cil) and a paper will work fine, too.
