myWriterTools - Software for writers, editors and proofreaders


Use your tools -- don't let your tools use you!

We offer software add-ins to Microsoft Word (Windows) that turn it into a powerful tool for writers, editors and proofreaders. Accomplish tasks that were previously either impossible or incredibly time-consuming. Once installed, these programs are instantly accessible from the myWriterTools toolbar in Word.

Our software targets two types of writing tasks:

  • Writing. Our basic myWriterTools program helps writers produce and clean up their documents. It helps you fix common formatting problems, find and replace improperly used words, make your documents gender neutral, access a complete style guide to answer questions on grammar and style, and makes backup a cinch.

  • Editing/Proofreading. Our Editor's Edition is perfect for authors, copy-editors, and proofreaders. No more manually keeping track of the important plot elements and queries to the author. You can easily add words and phrases to the computerized stylesheet, and then print a copy to accompany the edited document.

Our goal is to make your document easy-to-read and grammatically correct. Plain language is a goal of many government and industry groups. See more information on writing in plain language on our Plain Language page.

Some Advantages of myWriterTools for experienced writers and editors

myWriterTools helps writers and editors of all levels of expertise, including beginners. It is designed to also be useful for those with more experience since the rules and word lists are displayed and customizable. These benefits include:

1. You can see each recommended change before it is made and can choose to accept or reject the change.

2. All rules and word lists are viewable and editable. You can remove words you don't wish corrected, add new substitutions, or add your own list of words. You may have words specific to your industry or genre of writing--now you can check for those.

3. You can choose to run only the tools you need for each document.

4. If desired, you can use Word's 'Track Changes' feature to keep track of all the changes that myWriterTools makes. Authors can see all the changes made to the document.
