Using Kindle as a Writers Editor

orca747 · 12-04-2012, 10:24 PM

I like the easy reading experience of a Kindle and would like to use it as I am writing a book. Having the text display in book form would be more realistic and aid the creative spirit.

My initial perusal of the threads did not find someone wanting to do the same thing (please redirect me if applicable).

I would need to be able to download my own text into the Kindle and have as much editing tools available as possible.

I am technically oriented and can do a lot of hardware mods myself.
Any thoughts on accomplishing this would be appreciated.

Knowing which model Kindle may help people trying to respond here.
