Before, I storyboarded all this in Pinterest. You can put pictures in your research file, or your character or place sheets, to remember what things look like. Right next to where you’re writing, so you can remember the mood of a character or see their face while you’re writing: If you’re a visual person, Scrivener lets you drag pictures in ALL OVER THE PLACE. Let’s start with the visuals, because my latest book has some smoking hot uh… “inspiration” It knows you left your tea in the microwave, and it will build you a conveyor belt from the appliance back to your desk so you don’t have to get up, because it loves you. Scrivener is like your best friend, because it knows you and it makes you better. It knows we want to click over to Pinterest to check out cupcake recipes and blurt on Twitter that we just hit our word count goals for the day, and it freaking KNOWS we don’t remember what color we said the backsplash was in Darla’s kitchen. I’ve written 16 books in Word, and 1 in Scrivener, and while I’m not a master of all its many bells, whistles, and upgrades, Scrivener kicks Word’s butt on the following issues: Planning, Visuals (swoon!), Organization, and NO DISTRACTION FORMAT. I do what I want, and what I want is to HELP WRITERS SUCCEED.
Of course, by “discovered” I mean my CP raved for a year about this program and I ignored her, because much like the book Eat Pray Love, I assumed that anything that trendy and popular must be crap.įirst, I’d like to say I’m not getting kickbacks from Scrivener or Word to write this.

I’m not a computer girl, but when I discovered Scrivener software for writers, it was like I’d been putting in screws my whole life using a nail file, and somebody finally gave me a drill.
