Greg Brown's Flying Carpet Blog

I recently switched to a terrific Mac-only creative writing program called Scrivener ($39.95), that has hugely eased the challenge of collecting and organizing book scenes, notes, and ideas, and moving them around my manuscripts. Think of it as a corkboard where you can organize and search all your text clips and ideas at will – and then compile them into a Word (or other word-processing) document when you are done. After initially downloading the free trial, I was totally blown away by how effective, intuitive, and productive it is. I immediately purchased it, imported two of my current book projects and am having a blast making them happen at rates many times faster than what I could do before. Check out Scrivener if you are a writer and a Mac-head. I love it!
