Researchers are under pressure: publish or perish is one of their main challenges. Writing is hard and scientific writing is harder, and any help Publishers can provide to assist with the process is greatly appreciated, especially by younger authors. EDP Sciences and Astronomy & Astrophysics (A&A) have worked together to support their authors and developed a solution called Scientific Writing Studio (SWS) designed to make the article writing process easier. SWS is a tool that allows authors to collaboratively write their paper, then submit and then follow all stages of the publication process within a single unique interface. This paper explains the background to the development of the SWS, and describes the current benefits of the SWS as well as outlining future developments.
