Screen Writer Professional

This is a shareware program that carries a $15.00 registration fee. But you can try it for thirty days to see if it will work for you. I'm not a screen writer, so it's here at the suggestion of another writer who says it can compete with the commercial software in power and features.

SOT Office

The Book Writer

This Shareware word processor only costs $29.00 to register and adds a plethora of features that make it friendly to people who write book-length manuscripts. A project editor keeps track of all related files, even if they’re not in the same directory. You can search for words in phrases in the open file or all project files, and more and more. Very impressive.

YWriter

This is a free text editor and organizer for the writer. It keeps track of chapters and characters in your story as it develops. One shortcoming I found is that it only works with text files. But once you have your story together, you can always use another word processor to format the manuscript.
