That's a great way to operate -- get your content down first. Worry about formatting and pics and
pretty shapes and colors WAY down the road.
If what you have to "say" isn't right - all the layout in the world isn't going to help it.
I sometimes use the DTP app for catching words, but I've come to really like the "power" of Text Edit
for capturing things easily -- it has enough of options for bolds and italics, etc., and I can save each
section as its own document if I choose to, and just copy/paste it into my first drafts in InDesign, etc.
