My introduction to Scrivener was obviously God sent. I was delaying writing for so long it became an increasing effort for me to begin writing the first word. The reason for this, I am now thinking was because I did not know where to start. After setting aside the time needed to read through the provided interactive tutorial, avoiding the quick start guide, I can see how you can start anywhere, then organize as you go. Heck you could organize all of your writings at the end if you wanted to. I’m not sure how that would work with a novel but with how to, instructional formats it would work fine and gets me started.

The book has started, getting organized and I have begun collecting my references.

A possible draw back to this software, much like Blender and Unity I might try to start too many books and not finish a single one. Much like my folders full of Blender and Unity files. I have started and completed a lot of Blender files however these were tutorials for learning purposes. I have never finished a single Blender project I have started on my own. My Unity files are for learning purposes only and do date I have never started a Unity project I actually meant to finish as a published game.

I also dropped a good chunk of change on a Surface Book. What a great piece of engineering. So far this make a MacBook pro look like a Childs toy.
