Useful tools to use when writing comics

You don’t have to spend a fortune finding the good software and tools for writing comics. A lot is available for free. Here I’ll briefly guide you through my favourites.
Libreoffice – Libreoffice has basically taken open over from Open Office as the free alternative to Microsoft office. So if you want a decent quality free word processor I highly recommend it.
Celtx - Celtx can technically be used to manage the creation of a whole project. There are places to add character bios. In fact it automatically tracks new characters. I use it mainly for it’s script writer, it also has a dedicated graphic novel export format which exports comic scripts into table like formats, dividing each panel up into different boxes.
After the Deadline a free spelling and grammar checker that you can get both as a Libreoffice plug-in and as a web browser plug-in. It’s grammar checking is really intelligent and I find it much faster and more accurate than other similar tools. If you’re worried about your writing being sent off to their server to check you can also host it on your own server.
Wikidpad I’ve not had a chance to use this and compare it with Celtx’s project management tools, but those of you writing longer more complex stories might want to give this a go. It basically creates a wiki locally on your system, so you can create universe ‘bibles’ , to keep track of stories, research etc.
