What tool to use when authoring the blog post?

I notice(d) that I always use an external editor (Text Wrangler - TW) to actually write my posts.

I then copy/paste into the Wix Blog Post Editor (WBPE) - and I wonder why?

An immediate "suspicion" is would be that I feel the WBPE is too volatile - but I also don't save my work in TW...

It can be that I trust the recovery of TW more than the that of WBPE.

But I really feel the TW tool - while only a plain-text editor and nothing more - "simply works as published".

Is this a pattern that is unique to me, or to other bloggers too?

And if so, why? My reason - or a different reason?
