For those on iOS and OSX, I have just stumbled upon Bear, an app similar to Evernote but with a better focus on the writer’s requirements:
http://www.bear-writer.com/

Bear is currently in the public beta phase.

Best,
Dominik

Bear Notes looks interesting, but it also appears to offer much of the same functionality as Ulysses.

Another option could even be Scrivener, which has a Windows version in addition to Mac and iOS. It is supposed to sync through Dropbox, though I’m still trying to figure that out.

In Scrivener’s “Project” panel click the “Edit” button.  The Settings gear will appear at the bottom of that panel.  Use the command to set up Dropbox.  You can choose a single Dropbox directory to be the location for all your .scriv project files.  (They are really “packages” full of files.)  You have to use the same folder on the Mac side, obviously.

An even closer equivalent is Letterspace (for Mac/iOS), but Bear Notes is a very elegant implementation of the concept (I’m running the beta).

As for Scrivener: yes, it does indeed sync through Dropbox, and is relatively easy to set up. But it’s a good idea to shut it down on one machine before syncing with Dropbox on another, otherwise you can find conflicts crop up. Scrivener does resolve them, but at the cost of some manual time.
