* StoryBook has really good features to manage novel writing process right from the beginning. When you start writing a novel, you can add story plots, all your characters, and all the locations in StoryBook. Then, you can quickly refer to them any time during the novel writing process. Storybook helps you to keep an overview, especially helpful for complex stories with two or more plot-lines (strands). Imagine it as a kind of a "dynamic mind map". * Strands and strand links: Each scene belongs to a primary strand. Optionally, other related secondary-strands can be linked to a scene. * Characters: Add, edit or remove characters and assign them to scenes. * Locations: Add, edit or remove locations and assign them to scenes. * Chapters: Define your chapters and assign scenes to them. * Parts: Large projects can be split into well-arranged parts. * Information: A hierarchic tree shows all characters, locations, chapters and strands. If scenes are missing or exist twice, a warning informs you. * Adjustable view: All views can be re-sized to fit to screen or to get a better overview. Even more working space is available if you hide the information panel with a simple click on the tool bar. * Task list and Navigation: The task list shows all scenes with a status other than "done". With the "Go to date" respectively "Go to chapter" navigation you can easily jump to the desired date or chapter-number. * Spell Check: Your text can be checked for spelling. New words can be added to your personal user directory. * Instant save: Because Storybook uses an embedded database called H2 to store data (and not a file) each input entered is saved in an instant. Even if the program crashes, you won't loose any data. After that, StoryBook provides advanced features to organize and manage
chapters and scenes of your novels. Once you have completed all your
scenes and chapters, you can review your novel in BookView that shows
how will the final published novel look. With the export feature, the
whole story can be exported as plain text, PDF, HTML, CSV, RTF (Word)
or ODT (Open Office)
