A useful writing organization tool

Postby inkhana » Wed Nov 12, 2003 9:58 pm

In my work on Steelblood, I've often found it necessary to keep tons and tons of notes to keep all my stuff in line. Not to mention I never decide on dates for things, etc. :grin: The other day, I went searching for software to help me organize this stuff. Even though that's not what it was intended for, this program works pretty well:

I've been using it and so far it's pretty cool! I included a couple of screenshots. Hope someone finds this useful! ^^

(in response to an interview question "Do you have a pet peeve having to do with this biz?")
People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.

Hey, thanks! I'm going to download it tomorrow and transfer it to my PC-I think it could definitely help. I'm always having problems with timelines and chronology. . .^sigh^

This quite an interesting program, maybe I could spare the memory and download it. :eyebrow: This would help me to properly keep my characters on a distinct path and also to create a proper story. Honestly right now I'm pretty much writing down what I feel would add to the story, of course I have a plot just not a overdetailed one.

I'm rambling again. :shady:

Actually while I'm here I can tell you that I updated my story, so check it out if you want.
