Have you looked at yWriter? It focuses on scenes. |
I have tried yWriter but, I don't know, it seemed so 'fiddly' to me. I'm giving WriteWay a 2nd try as it addresses the scene vs chapter issue. It feels a bit less complicated than yWriter, though it is far from perfect.
For instance, I'm not really happy with how it handles location as a separate logical object that can be linked to chapters, characters, etc. the way QW does. It's just a note entered into a scene, and can't be linked to other objects in the outline.
As a writing environment, Quoll Writer is perfect for me, it's the detailed organizational issues I'm having trouble with.
I don't think of those 'must markers' are the equivalent of treating scenes as a building block of the chapter, more of a marker to say a certain scene should go "here". Useful, I guess to some people, but not to me.
Maybe I should write in QW, and import into WW!
