Well new work (sort of; keep praying) has led into interesting areas.
One of those has been the discovery of Scrivener, through 43 folders. Scrivener is a virtual writing studio and looks really good so far. Click on the 43 folders link for Merlin Mann’s review. I downloaded the demo and am enjoying it. It might be a good investment.
But, the good people of Scrivener actually provide links to all their competitors. So now I am paralyzed. So many cool apps, so little time! (Or, so many ways to procrastinate from doing any writing.) I’ll list them here. The Scrivener page has little mini-reviews.
- Ulysses
- CopyWrite
- Jer’s Novel Maker
- Avenir
- DevonThink
- WriteItNow (also for PC; the page lists a bunch of windows programs I’m not going to repost here)
The page also includes OmniOutliner (which I here great things about) and MacJournal (which is good), neither of which I consider to be really the same sort of thing. I downloaded Jer’s because it is free, but I haven’t started using it yet (mainly because I’m too stubborn to read directions).
