Times may have changed in recent years, but I would think that Google Docs is not at all useful for publication. I've used it to write documents at work, and it offers annoying little control over formatting. Furthermore, there is no feature to “export” to another file format. And any publisher will want a file they can hold locally and manipulate, not a URL that can’t be input into their publishing software.

I suggest getting the free Libre Office. And don't worry about the formatting per se, but rather make sure everything is assigned to a named style, not applied directly. This will let you restyle for nice PDF or ebook, or generate the double-spaced typewriter output that traditional publishers want.
