One of the things I've always wanted to do was create a plugin that focused on the novel-writing process. WordPress is OK for just writing. Not great but OK. If you want to do things like outlines, scene and character cards, etc., it is limiting to the process. Of course, what everyone needs out of writing software varies so much.

I prefer writing in Markdown because I never have to move my fingers far or use a mouse. But, I am actually using Dabble for this November. It auto-syncs via the NaNoWriMo API, so that's a huge win. I've dabbled with Dabble before, but I wanted to give its novel-focused system of notes and such a try. Writing in it is actually pretty nice thus far. I just have to get used to hitting Ctrl + i for italics.

Anything is better than the MS Word templates my team had to use for our WP book. It was one of the worst experiences I've had.
