/lit/ - Literature

I don't give a flying fuck about Meme Joyce, but I just saw an excerpt of this book and I WANT TO READ IT.

What are the main languages his vocabulary derives from? I can only into Germanic and Romance, so I hope that's enough.

Is there any good software for writing with a less linear worflow than Word?
Does anyone know how "incremental writing" works or what it is?

Context:
For the past week I've been reading the Supermemo wiki (if you tend to fall for Wikipedia/TVTropes loops, think twice about clicking):
https://supermemo.guru/wiki/Genius_checklist

Much of what he says is a bit too... much for most people, but I agree with a lot of his points he makes and am trying to understand the philosophy behind the software he made (Supermemo) to apply the principles to myself and my goals.

He basically studies with a method called "incremental reading" which is reading books/articles bit by bit and adding notes/making flashcards, that much I understand.

But he also briefly mentions "incremental writing", a method I sadly can't find much more information about.
