The Low Blue Light option, when adjusted to also use lower brightness (about 10% vs the 20% I use in standard mode), isn't bad, but switching it in every night and out every morning is a right PITA x 2 (a pain for each cheek).
The first claim is sort of true, the second is an outright lie. I do a lot of my work at night, so when I saw they said: "Low Blue Light", and "easy to access screen controls" that was what I wanted (okay, and lots of other good things too). I recently built a new system and this time around actually purchased two new screens. But I do still look at what's out there, so thanks for the links, when I get a chance I will take a peek.īut I remain on the lookout for other aids to my writing.
I have most of the pieces needed already time is the only missing factor. I know what I want, and when I have the time I'll write it. I don't tend to search with the intention of buying these days. I'll never be short of ideas again, not that I am, but there are times when my fingers twitch to get writing but I just can't think of anything decent to write.Īnd there's always the hope that somehow these tools will magically make me a better writer.

Last night, while browsing the web for a free downloadable prompt program (I have Mikkomatrix but feel the need for something more), I came across The Storymatic Classic and just HAD TO have it!! If you've never heard of it, here's the Amazon link: Mind maps tend to have a structured way of joining together: parent and child nodes etc, which Scapple frees you from.

Scapple is a lot simpler than the usual mind mapping software in that it is totally free form you just double click on the screen and type a note anywhere then if you want to join it to another you 'sit' one on top of the other and a dotted line appears between them. I don't have Snowflake Pro, but I do have The Novel Factory which incorporates the Snowflake method. Moreover, they seem to have a no-questions-asked money-back guarantee, so.why not? OTOH, if you are not using something like Storyblocks or one of the big outlining/plotting tools (I don't consider Scrivener to be this), then this may well be a great addition. I think you said that you have Snowflake Pro, so you might find some of this redundant. I don't know what IdeaSpinner does, other than force you to think about the usual questions,to round out your story. ETA: Interestingly, I've never seen anyone on MR-or anyplace-say that they used it, either.) But honestly, Scapple looks like mind-mapping software to me, and given that most of the best of mm software is free, well. Well.if you're like me, you have them all (although, I haven't yet acquired Dramatica. (BTW I'm muskndusk on youtube and make some disparaging comments beneath the Idea Spinner vid )Īnd I'm procrastinating when I should be nano planning!
#Scrivener vs snowflake pro trial#
There's no trial version of Idea Spinner, though it's only $19.99 (about £15). However, I came across something called Idea Spinner: This is useful for top-level plotting and does this very quickly. I have Scapple, made by the same peeps who make Scrivener (which I also have).
