User reviews

Update solved my issues, great job and thanks for listening!

I had an issue with the size of the fonts but it's been fixed and now is much more useable! Thanks for listening and bring committed to improving what is actually a great idea. I'm really enjoying the new version!

Old post

The concept of merging a kind of screenplay, episodic format to novel writing is a good that using scenes and episodes makes plotting and storytelling easier. Having said that where are the options for larger fonts? They are very much needed. Also the save and export is clunky and the UI looks a little primitive. I say this as someone who paid for the pro version. A lot of potential but please don’t stop developing it!

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! Based on your comments we've implemented an option to change textsize in the next version, we are just running it through testing now to make sure it doesn't break anything. This feature will be implemented for all users. We are also implementing some exciting new subscriber only features, but those are still about another month out.

Very promising app missing some key ingredients

Great way to write a novel

I’m trying this app out for the latest novel I’m writing. It’s very good so far. I like the idea of splitting the novel into episodes. I feel like it’s making me give more thought to how the plot flows and that I’m constantly compelling the reader to continue reading. The manuscript export feature is awesome, saving much time getting fonts and line spacing just right. The free version does everything I need, but I might consider purchasing the subscription to support the developer—some of the additional features look pretty cool, too. Compared to other novel writing apps, the subscription cost is surprisingly cheap.
