Literature and Latte - Scrivener
January 29, 2007Right now I’m on Day-One of a 30 day evaluation of an app called Scrivener. It’s a tool for writers that lets them build up documents a section at a time, dragging and dropping sections to re-arrange them, jumping into fullscreen mode to work on individual sections without distractions, assigning notes and clippings and status levels to those sections…
It does all of that, and a lot more, plus it’s just gosh-darned beautiful to look at as well. I just can’t leave it alone.
It’s the same sort of feeling I get, as when I’ve just gotten a nice new car, and I keep leaving the house just to sit in it and smell the leather and play with the audio system. And then I say, “Yes!” when I see how smoothly the cup-holders glide out from the dash.
Back in Scrivener I said, “Yes!” upon discovering that it auto-capitalizes sentences as well as the letter “i” as in: I think this is great.
Now, what to write…
