SCRIVENER WINDOWS ORGANIZATION SKETCH TEMPLATE MANUAL
A quick aside: the Scrivener User Manual is hands-down the best user manual I’ve ever read. The manual alone is invaluable I constantly find myself going through it to see if there are any little tricks or hacks I’m missing. Here’s a look at the opening screen of Scrivener (on Mac):Īs you can see, you’re presented with the Interactive Tutorial (a Scrivener file preloaded with helpful tips) and the Scrivener User Manual. Unbelievably easy - it won’t give you the correct words, but its easy-to-use interface, helpful tips, and loads of features will inspire you to write and get out of the way when you just need a muse-capturing device. And that’s what I’m intending to do here! That makes sense, and if you haven’t yet tried the free trial, the only other way to “get a feel for it” is through a detailed, complete walkthrough. Since it’s a “premium” app, there’s usually plenty of hesitation surrounding it when I mention it on the blog. It’s around $45, available on Mac and PC, and can be compiled to Linux, and iPhone and iPad versions might be in the works. However, I wanted to write a post that would provide the “pre-user” a good starting point for comparing Scrivener to their current writing tool of choice, to help people decide if it in fact would benefit their workflow.Īfter all, Scrivener isn’t free. Still, I get questions all the time about what it really does that Word or Pages can’t handle. I’ve used it for two novels, six nonfiction books, and even for quickly formatting copied text to generate personal-use PDFs. It’s no secret around here that I’m a huge fan of Scrivener, the #1 tool for writing.
