Exactly, we had some talk about whether it would fit into Publishing but it 
might
not be the best choice. 

Publishing in Freedesktop category have this spec:

Publishing
Desktop Publishing applications and Color Management tools
Graphics or Office

and Office:

Office
An office type application

...
 
When I compare with Scrivener which is a similar application it only has 
"Office"
listed and it ends up in our Office menu when installed.

I think Literature would be somewhat appropriate, but then it was pointed to 
main
categories Education or Science, which to me seem a bit far fetched.

I'd go for Office as no better alternative seem to exist. That would put it
outside the Ubuntu Studio menu, I'm not sure if that's a problem?

It doesn't have to be a problem. If it already fits in office we can just include it. We can still have it in the publishing meta regardless. This is what the publishing menu/meta was actually originally imagined to hold. The only thing that has changed is that publishing as a word has been found to be less than specific. However the idea of including Literature creating tools is not out of line and with a push to use existing Categories, Office is fine. I am sure many people will look there second if not first.
