Hm, I don’t know how I managed to miss FocusWriter till now. I thought I’ve tried all the distraction-free writing apps, but clearly not. Out of all, this one I like the best so far. It’s a nice effect to be able to split the screen with WinSplit Revolution and have FW on the left half (just a blank grey screen), and O4D on the right. I just wish it worked with my “speed writing tools” such as Dragon and WordExpander…

I love this app. It’s really fast (compared e.g. to WriteMonkey). The only thing it’s missing is the option to put notes.

Thank you for mentioning it. I’ve just had a very productive writing session with it (even without Dragon and WordExpander), so it’s rapidly becoming a favourite!

Some of these FW themes are really beautiful, but some may treat them as a sin against minimalism.
