Win a Copy of WhiteSmoke's Writing Software!

Here's a special contest for members of my forum only! As you'll know from my last post, we just clocked up 100,000 posts. Well, we've now arranged with our friends at WhiteSmoke to give away a copy of their popular writing software to whoever creates post number 101,000!

For those who don't know, WhiteSmoke is a program that aims to help users produce better-written documents. It does this by analyzing the spelling, punctuation and grammar in any document, then suggesting corrections and possible improvements. If you missed it, you can read my full review of WhiteSmoke's software here (though note that this does not mention some of the new features added recently, such as the built-in dictionary).

This contest is already generating lots of interest on the forum, and there are now only a few hundred posts to go until the magic 101,000 is reached. See this topic where the contest is being discussed!

Finally, I should mention that WhiteSmoke currently have a special 'Birthday Offer' running. As it's the company's birthday, they are offering everyone who buys their standard software the opportunity to buy any two of the 'pro' versions as well for just $1 each. The pro versions are designed to apply a particular style, and among the choices you can get a creative writing version and a business version. This offer represents a saving of over $100 on the full price. For more info, see my review or click on the banner below to go straight to the WhiteSmoke site.

Good luck in the contest, and get posting!

White Smoke sounds interesting. I wonder if it works also with Vista. I'm so used to the easy blah blah of WORD but the idea of Thesaurus suggestions intrigues me. I hate stopping to reach for that book.

I'm new at Writer's Circle and just getting started there. Geesh, there are SO MANY writing websites that beckon one, and so much software to spend valuable time learning!

Hi Judie

I'm afraid I don't know the answer to this question, though I would be surprised if it doesn't work with Vista. I'd suggest emailing your query to support@whitesmoke.com. Let us know what reply you get!
