Anyway, my point in posting was that while I have not gotten very far on my novel, I am totally geeking out about LaTeX.  Holy eff, how have I never worked with this before?  A friend's boyfriend who geeks out over similar things and is a Comp Sci person too was talking about it sometime last year and I just kinda blew it off.  Then I saw a lot of talk about it from people who were writing their novels on Linux computers (my laptop runs Ubuntu) and I couldn't find anything comparable to Q10 (which I love, but does not play nice with things besides Windows) that worked on my laptop so I decided to take the plunge and try something completely different.  I am in love.  I have so far been making each chapter a text file and then setting it into my novel latex file and compiling it to check the overall format and I heart it.  I'm using Kile on Ubuntu and the sffms class to layout my file.  Also I've been typing the story mainly on Writer, which allows me to add to it from my laptop and my desktop.
