For those who do write novels, books etc. What software do you use? What format? FOSS or proprietary?

https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/overview it's proprietary, but it has a lot of features geared towards writing novels/screenplays/etc

Scrivener is a fantastic tool! It's a shame that it will likely not be open sourced but I will give the devil its due credit. Scrivener is brilliant for authorship.

I second this. Scrivener is a godsend once you get the hang of the interface. It's so flexible and easy to stay organized with.
