Can I use the writing program Open Office to write a book?

I’m ready to write my first book (novel) but the only writing software my on my laptop is Open Office because it’s free. I’ve heard that authors like J. K. Rowling (Harry Potter series) used Microsoft Word to write.I can’t afford Microsoft Word and I was wondering if I could use the alternative: Open Office.

Thanks in advanced.

Side question: What writing software do you use?

How do I remove something from the Open Office software?

When I click on the Open Office icon, when it comes up it has the word processor and the spreadsheet (the two things I selected to install at the time). Now I don’t use the spreadsheet anymore like I use to, is there anyway I remove it from the selection screen, or do I need to wait for the next update so I can choose what I want on there? Thanks for any advice on what to do.
