Literature and Latte - Testimonials ““If there was a list of the top five greatest apps of all time in the Mac App Store, it would start with Scrivener and then there would be four other things.”— Andy Ihnatko, technology columnist and general good guy. Many of these applications are very good — but every one is in some way lacking. I've tried them all, and none has been more than a temporary home; a good place to stay until something better came along. And guess what — it finally did.
Scrivener incorporates and improves the best aspects of its progenitors and, in doing so, exceeds them all. As a writer's application, Scrivener is damn near perfect; it means outlines, treatments and then first drafts can be put together in the same application.”— Neil Cross, long- listed for the 2. Booker Prize for his novel Always the Sun and screenwriter for the acclaimed BBC1 show Spooks. More recently a writer for Doctor Who, screenwriter for Luther and scriptwriter for US box office number 1 film Mama.“Just a note to say that I love using Scrivener.
I only use some of the features but it’s fantastic for keeping track of characters and events in novels. Dungeons & Dragons logo used for the 5th Edition of the game.

Even though I tend to write in chapters, I also love the ability to move sections of the novel around and the split screen view. Snapshot is also great for trying new ideas while keeping old work together. I’m sure I could get more out of it but it’s given me a lot already. It was a great purchase and worth every cent.”— Sheila O’Flanagan, best- selling author of The Perfect Man, Someone Special, Bad Behaviour, Anyone But Him, How Will I Know?

Working as a team, we found Scrivener to be an invaluable resource for dividing up work and tracking progress - - allowing us to work independently from one another, easily merge parts together, and check in completed sections. Shuffling parts from here to there was a breeze, as was discarding sections to the Research folder - - and resurrecting them again when needed. We truly can’t imagine writing another book without using Scrivener.”— David Solmonson and Lesley Jacobs Solmonson, are the husband and wife authors of The 1. Bottle Bar.“Scrivener revolutionized my writing life and I’d be a mess without it. Boom, Bust, Exodus is a collection of interwoven storylines from multiple settings in two countries that I collected in over a decade of sociological field research.
It was a huge project, and it blew up Word early. When I found Scrivener, I suddenly had a tool that not only helped me to create, but also to play with structure, to add important annotations and crazy ideas to try out, and, crucially, to organize interview transcriptions, timelines, journal and newspaper articles, and government reports—and to have all of it right there, at the ready. I’m a dyed- in- the- wool organizer, and Scrivener helped me tame this beast of a project. I now also use it for structuring presentations, radio interviews, op- eds, and short articles, including this testimonial! It is simple, intuitive, and powerful, and it made my book better than it would have been without it.
It’s just so good, and a ridiculous value to boot.”— Chad Broughton , is a senior lecturer in Public Policy Studies at the University of Chicago. He is author of Boom, Bust, Exodus: The Rust Belt, the Maquilas, and a Tale of Two Cities and writes for The Atlantic.“Word is dead to me now. Scrivener has helped me to organise and streamline and plan and execute while also making the whole slog of novel writing an absolute joy. In such a short time it has become an essential piece of software. I don’t know how I would manage without it.”— Conrad Williams, award- winning author of One, The Unblemished and Blonde on a Stick.“Longtime user of the awesome Scrivener. As a video production professional, it’s pretty much revolutionised how I go about planning and laying out shoots for clients.
It’s also a great solution for getting all the information in one place about a certain client or project. I can see how this software would be fantastic in other industries, but certainly in my industry it’s absolutely amazing!”— Matthew Crawford, videographer for Shoot The Piano Player Films.“Today I finished the first draft of my 3. I’ve written entirely in Scrivener. I’ve also used Scrivener to write dozens of short stories, a handful of magazine articles and countless book proposals. I’ve got a stage script or two on the go, and I’ve even had a shot at my first comic book script.
As a writer, changing software is a big deal; I’d got used to how to write in MS Word, even if that meant the usual glitches I’d come to expect from the industry standard software. I was used to scrolling through page after page of manuscript to find that one spot where I wanted to rename a minor character, or drop in a clue to the identity of the villain. I knew I’d have to spend time juggling with formatting before submitting my work. I accepted that I’d have to deal with a couple of force quits, and bring a manual back- up of my book to life, kicking and screaming. It’s all just part of the job and, after all, Word isn’t exclusively for writers — it has to fulfil a thousand different roles for a thousand types of user.
Then I discovered Scrivener — software created especially for writers. That’s why I use it. It was designed with people like me in mind. You’ll read elsewhere on this website that Scrivener allows you to split your work up into chapters, scenes and even paragraphs; that it’s a place where you can keep all your research material within easy access; that you can view two versions of a scene on screen at the same time, putting an end to the laborious copying and pasting between different files; that you can reorganise your plot quickly and easily via the cork board; that you can export your work to dozens of different formats, each with a seemingly unlimited list of potential customisations; that the software saves your work every time you pause from typing, and makes automatic back- ups in case things go wrong. It’s all true — Scrivener does all this and more.
But I use Scrivener simply because it allows me to write without worrying whether the program I’m using will let me write. Whatever you want to write, give Scrivener a try. I’m certain you won’t regret it.”— Tommy Donbavand, is the author of the 1. Scream Street series, published in the UK by Walker Books and in the US by Candlewick Press. He has also written a number of books for specialist reluctant reader publisher, Barrington Stoke.“Scrivener has changed the way I write novels. It has allowed me to become a much more ambitious writer. I can now write non- linear, structurally complicated books like Liar without having to resort to outlining or printing paper out and shuffling it around on the floor and being just one unfortunate door opening away from it being blown into chaos.
Scrivener allows me to see the structure as it emerges and made it a piece of cake to move it around when needed. I have no idea how I would have kept track of everything without software that’s designed to allow you to manage such a big and complicated text as a novel. Thank you.”— Justine Larbalestier, author of Liar and co- author of Team Human.“I must have tried at least a dozen different pieces of software supposedly designed for writers. Not one of them can hold a candle to Scrivener, in my opinion. It’s an incredibly powerful, yet flexible, toolbox. How you work with Scrivener is always up to you. Scrivener doesn’t try to tell you how to do things.
If you’re the nerdy, super- organised type, that’s fine. Scrivener can cope with that.
But it’s also happy with the . You can hold an entire book (or number of books, come to that) in a single project, but at any moment in time you can focus on just the stuff you want to focus on. The rest of the project melts into the background until you’re ready for it. Excellent support comes as standard due to the written manual (the best I’ve seen for any piece of software I’ve used in more than 3. Scrivener project (so you’re inside Scrivener itself while learning how to use it) and an excellent forum where the developers and other helpful users will have your problems sorted out very promptly.
Quite how they manage to sell this at such a ridiculously modest price, I’ve no idea. I understand plans are afoot for a new version. How on earth they think they can improve on the current version is another thing that baffles me.
If you have any interest at all in writing, of any sort, you’re seriously missing out if you haven’t given Scrivener a try.”— Sam Dave Pollard, author of Tickling Hitler.“I’m in love! With Scrivener. He — sorry, it — has totally changed my life.
I was first introduced to Scrivener in an e- mail from my long- suffering Brother. I ignored him — sorry, it — completely. As if a piece of crummy software is going to make any difference to my creativity! I pressed delete. Fortunately, I got a second chance.
A writer friend of mine re- introduced me to Scrivener (! Your brother introduced us! And you totally snubbed me! But fortunately I don't bear a grudge, and you can have me for a 3.
Proper head over heels. Scrivener is amazing. He’s — sorry, it's — everything I could dream of in a word processor. Where to even begin?
Everything about him — sorry, it — is incredible. User friendly in ways I couldn’t ever have imagined from my mispent youth with other computer programmes. I never knew I could feel this way about anything I could download legally. I don’t want to nauseate you. I don’t want you tutting . But I’ve never known multiple functions like this before..
Truly, he’s — sorry, it’s — made me into a whole new writer.”— Marie Phillips, author of Gods Behaving Badly.“I’ve been trying so- called . Until Scrivener. Good software is like good writing, invisible to the user. The focus, simplicity and clarity is astonishing, and the absence of hype and jargon just as welcome too.
