It is a known fact that bloggers need a finite space to push creative thoughts. There are plenty of tools available for bloggers to note down their ideas and drafts online with the universal sync option. However, we need a standalone blog editor which offer offline support. Offline supported blog editors are highly productive and you can continue your blogging journey even when the Internet connection is unavailable.
