I’ve been working hard at finishing/editing my novel, and I just had to share a nice little piece of software that I found.
If you’ve been looking at Scrivener and can’t use it because you’re not on a Mac, this might just be the answer.
It has the storyboard layout that I’ve been looking for. You can drag and drop scenes and rearrange them easily, which also means all the text associated with the scene moves too. This is much easier than copy/paste in a word processor.
The thing that really sold me was that it will import works in progress. Go through your existing document and make sure chapter titles are “Chapter 1″ etc. Then, put “* * *” between scenes. (Note, that’s *space*space*). Save your file as RTF.
YWriter’s import tool will bring it in and automatically split it into chapters and scenes. How cool is that?
