Somebody already suggests but I'm really satisfied with Latex.

It's distraction free, can be used in ANY text editor you want and has the BIG advantage of separating formatting from content. In my case, I just created my own class to have the final document formatted as I want.

Another huge advantage is that, since it's plain text, you may threat it as computer code and use repositories to track reviews and share your writing efforts with editors and other writers.
github.com is great if you want to write something public, and bitbucket.org offers private hosting if you want to keep it private. It's all a matter to understand how it works.

The big disadvantage is that you will have to spend some time to learn the basics but, in my opinion, it's worth.
