(including the characters, timelines, relationship maps, ideas, location info etc)</p> <p>The reason I ask, is that my partner is about to embark on a novel and I thought I might buy her an app to help out. </p> <p>Doing a little research I see a lot of tools out there which aim to help you in your creativity and idea etc. Which is not what I am looking for. I am more thinking in terms of an organisational tool which helps the novelist but stays out of the way. There do seem to be a few options out there, notably, Scrivener, WriteItNow, WriteWay etc</p> <p>Anyone out there (including Stephen) know what Stephen favours?<br /> Or any ideas of your own?</p> <p>MCBod </p>
