so…there is one small downside to Scrivener.
I don’t want to stop using it.
understandably, that’s okay right now. right now, I have eight episodic books to plot. that’s one main protagonist, six points of view, eight sub-genres of sci-fi erotica (really, though, there will be action-adventures, detective stories, romances, the whole shebang), two massive cultures and their intricate societal quirks, and then the first contact with probably four or five other species to keep track of. having Scrivener around is amazing.
I was on a roll last night, cranking out probably 4k words between the eight different plot docs, and the overarching story is much more solidified in my mind now. that being said, I can tell how easy it would be to dive into this software and not resurface until it was past the point of usefulness and straying into that dangerous territory known as procrastination.
for someone obsessed with organization and connections, Scrivener is orgasmic for me. so I’ve got to keep one eye on it and make sure it doesn’t become an obsession.
