bibisco bibisco is a novel writing software that helps you to write your story, in a simple way. * bibisco is a desktop application available for Linux, MacOS and Windows in 13... Too strict in his structure and the same time not thorough enough so that the boxing in would by uselful LapoMelzi • Sep 2019 • 5 agrees and 2 disagrees Disagree Agree Laughably bad. Scrivener has the good sense to stay out of your way when you know what you're doing bibisco not only got in the way constantly (no, follow OUR tutorial!) it also insisted on doing it in, I kid you not, two inch caps. Is this some kind of joke? Guest • Nov 2017 • 31 agrees and 24 disagrees Disagree Agree I used bibisco briefly a few years ago, and I remember it being packed to the brim with useful features. It's great for fiction writers because it gives them a variety of fields for defining their character. I felt the software was a bit too bulky for what I wanted, though. The best thing about bibisco is that it's 100% free, which is nice if your funds are limited, or if you aren't making a profit from your writing. thatmasquedgirl • Dec 2018 • 3 agrees and 8 disagrees Disagree Agree It is actually a better alternative to Scrivener because of its clear, organisation features. I wish I would have discovered this before I purchased Scrivener. Bibisco is much easier to use: You don't need lengthy tutorials to read just to get started. Hands down this is better. callyw • Dec 2016 • 14 agrees and 10 disagrees Disagree Agree simple and very useful to know your characters! laurafecco • Nov 2016 • 5 agrees and 4 disagrees Disagree Agree Bibisco is free, has a very good design and structure that help to create a fiction book outline . The text editor is quite simple and working is quite intuitive.

Manuskript Open-source tool for writers. With outliner, character management, plot development, distraction-free editor, etc. Mostly because it's opensource but also because the interface and features are very similar ! DarkRedman • Jul 2019 • 3 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Even if it is in the early stages, it is smarter than Scrivener. The way it handles revisions is simple and amazing; the Timeline is rough yet great -- and something Scrivener doesn't have; the tracking of characters, locations, plots and every other item in the story is easy and effective. Plus, it is still in development and hasn't reached its full potential. I have been using Scrivener for year, but I am enjoy this opensource baby much more. LapoMelzi • Sep 2019 • 3 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Manuskript organizes a project essentially the same way Scrivener does: Project, Chapters, Scenes. It has all the essentials for a good writing workflow. In fact, it offers a few more tools than does Scrivener. redbeardgrey • Aug 2019 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree There are many similar layout features compared to Scrivener. It also has a few features Scrivener seems to be missing or doesn't define clearly such as an outline process. However, it is very early development and has many bugs to work out.

yWriter yWriter is a writing tool that uses "scenes" as a unit of text and allows you to associate that text with all manner of story elements (characters, locations... In my traipsing about the world of effective writing applications, like many, I blindly downloaded and attempted to utilize Scrivener. As noted, this was an attempt and, to better, expound, it was a failed attempt as Scrivener lacks a WYSIWYG approach. yWriter, however, is an absolute gem providing all of the necessary development tools broken down in a logical format that follows the lifecycle of story development from inception to completion. Guest • Oct 2018 • 5 agrees and 8 disagrees Disagree Agree it's free, it's easy to use and intuitive. The only thing that would make ywriter better is if it had an option to sync to other devices or such. Seriously, this is so much better than scrivener! isahbellah • Mar 2017 • 7 agrees and 8 disagrees Disagree Agree Freemium Mac Windows Linux Android iPhone ...
