April 2018: Writing Software
~ Laura Haley-McNeil ~
CTR asked:
Which writing software do you use (something other than MS Word, like Jutoh and Scrivener)? What’s your favorite feature(s), and why?
Laura Haley-McNeil said:
I start off in Scrivener. I love that I can separate the chapters and can make side notes about what else needs to be in that chapter on the little card in the right hand column. I also write my outline and character sheet in separate folders. From there, I format the manuscript for Word and send it to the developmental editor.
After she returns it to me, I make changes in Word and continue the editing in Word as I send to the copy editor and then the proofreader and finally the formatter. There’s still so much I don’t know how to do in Scrivener. I understand it’s quite capable, but I still work the day job and am too busy trying to find time to write so haven’t had time to sit down and work through the options. I understand there are tutorials, but haven’t had time to work my way through these either.
