Anyone know of good software to help write articles for publishing for extra income? I've found a few that look good, but want to compare with some other ideas?

I have not heard about such things but if such software is available then I am sure every person would have been the great writer.

Why do you want to use a software to help write articles? You mean software as in MS Word or OpenOffice Write? Or do you mean the software can form a story or article on its own? If it is the second, isn't it kind of cheating?
Imagine one day you submit an article using the same keywords as others and the software generates the exact same words for another person. Both of you submit the same article to the publisher. What happens? I bet both will be banned for plagiarism, and you get to lose all that you have earned.
Do you think it is worth it? Come on, earn a honest living. OK?

I think many of us were uninformed about this software..and I sort of still wonder if it is a little like plagiarism, but I looked up plagiarism and software article writing and can't find anything.
Apparently it's a little like spellchecker...you could look up every word or use spellchecker. Except you bring together facts and pick and choose the ones you want to use to compose an article. I still question if using the same wording without giving credit to sources is plagiarism.
