I've written several novels using LyX, including _The Last Season_,
which is available in bookstores or the online sellers.  [End of
shameless plug!]  I've never found a need for a template beyond the
book style.  I use the *Chapter format for an unnumbered prologue, and
the \frontmatter and \mainmatter tags in TeX-mode to include special
material like dedication pages.

I find that LyX is easier to use than StarOffice or the other word 
processors, but wonder if there is a template available for writing 
short fiction or novels? If anybody has one, could they please gzip it 
and send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? Thanks.

Dear Matthew,

There is a very flexible "book" template standard in the LyX 
collection. You can choose numbering of the various levels by selecting 
the appropriate item with or without asterisk.

Best regards,

Lucien
