Making things in Google Docs is fine, but last I checked Google Docs just sucked at opening anything that wasn't already a GDoc. LibreOffice Writer sometimes has formatting errors opening Word Docs, but it does a miles better job than Google Docs.

Also, I hate how normalized everything using the cloud (aka "Someone Else's Hard Drive") for no reason is.
