You can move scenes around, split documents into separate sections and vice versa. If you’re a writer who works by scenes, Scrivener makes this super easy. You can also make it so that you can block out everything except your writing space. Conceivably, you can open up Scrivener without knowing anything about how it works and just start writing, because the space is intuitive. It makes for a great word processor because it has everything there at your fingertips. Scrivener’s plusses: As I mentioned, Scrivener is focused on writing. I’ll get into more detail starting with Scrivener. WC is geared from the brainstorming and structuring part of writing, while Scrivener’s emphasis is more on the writing itself. And both have really good support, Scrivener with its forums and WC with its Yahoo email group.ĭifferences: WC has different ‘programs’ within itself that you can choose to do your work via different tabs and/or a desktop that has icons to different parts of yourself, whereas Scrivener keeps everything on one place.

There were some cool features Scrivener had that WC didn’t have, but other features WC ruled on that Scrivener was lacking. But I was still curious, so I downloaded a demo and wrote a short story using it. By then, I had become a die hard fan of Writer’s Cafe, so I wasn’t looking to switch. You can find my write up of that here.Ī couple of years ago, Scrivener finally came out with a Windows version. It’s a great tool I found at the beginning of my writing career when I was looking for something that matched Scrivener, which was only Mac at the time.
