Writing shed pro

I purchased this app as soon as it became available. This is the second app of this nature the first was titled Writing Shed.
I find the pro version a big step up from the original and enjoy writing daily. I can attest that Keith put a lot of effort into this app because I found a few bugs along the way but everything is working great now.
There is much to learn, which is very well documented. There are even tutorials to follow.
No matter what kind of writer you are writing shed pro has much to offer.
I highly recommend this app to anyone who enjoys writing.
Don’t take my word for it, you can use it for 10 days for free.
Give it a try, I promise you’ll love using it in a very short period of time.
