Since working on my novel, I’ve started using Scrivener and I absolutely love it! Even though my novel is still in the beginning phase, this writing software was a great change. Before using Scrivener, which is a writing app designed with the complexities of developing, drafting, and revising major projects in mind, I was using traditional word processors like Microsoft Word and Google Docs. I still think that those are excellent entry-level writing tools, but their limited features can prove…
