#scrivener — Public Fediverse posts

#WritersCoffeeClub Sep 11 - What's a part of your process you'd give free advertising to?

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I LOVE #Scrivener and fuck MS Word very much. In an era where Microsoft will hold your documents hostage to blackmail you into extending your cloud storage subscription, buy Scrivener once and own it forever. You know, like the good old days.

Great program too, much more useful for a long-form writer especially than Word.

Summerfest is on! Many great apps such as #Scrivener, #BBEdit, #EagleFiler, #Bookends, #Nisus Writer Pro, #Trickster and Hookmark are 25% off @eastgate

@aki It's a great tool. I've used it for the opposite: to take a Word doc exported by Scrivener to convert to Markdown, then imported into novelWriter. It took a little custom code to handle quirks in novelWriter's dialect of Markdown, but other than that it made it much easier to leave Scrivener behind.

Out of space.

I'm thinking of giving a survey of a few useful apps I use for writing (Humanities) and note-taking, as I am often suprised that students or colleagues do not know them; or at least some of them. I might do it here or on my blog, but will gladly write a few threads if anyone is interested. Tentative list: #Mellel #Nisus #IAWriter #Zotero #Bookends #BibLaTeX #Devonthink #LyX #Scrivener
