StoryWeaver
Detailed Review:StoryWeaver StoryWeaver is well named: it helps you weave your story. It guides you through the four stages of novel development: inspiration, development, exposition and storytelling. It asks you questions along the way about your story, and offers suggestions and ideas to expand your story ideas. It's about the creativity, its sister product Dramatica Pro works on the story structure - both are important. You can use either, or both.
StoryWeaver Writing Software -
Write Your Novel Step By Step In truth, this process is very demanding, and I found it frustrating at times. I didn't want, for example, to think about what my theme was. I just wanted to get on with the story! (Picture me drumming my heels against the floor!) And it was asking questions I didn't know the answer to yet. But of course, being a writer is about answering questions you don't know the answer to! And the creative mind is wonderful - when put under pressure, it always responds in the end. Kicking and screaming sometimes, as I found. But it does respond, and come up with And the result is an extremely well thought out story, with a powerful structure, theme, characters, plot - in other words, everything that's needed for a successful story. Using StoryWeaver is a lot of work. There's no point pretending it's not. But then, writing a novel is hard work, and this is just part of that. And once you've got the story outlined so comprehensively, the actual writing is very easy. No more sitting with your head in your hands, staring endlessly at the screen, wondering where to go next. No more playing endless Minesweeper in sheer rejection of the feeling of stuckness (or is that just me?!). The thing I really liked about StoryWeaver is that it brought stuff out of me I didn't know I had. The story I had in mind was, in retrospect, a thin, narrow thing. If it had a sound it would be tinny. The same story, once it had been through the StoryWeaver process, is rich, layered, complex, satisfying. Its sound is a deep chocolately resonance. All this, and it is priced incredibly well at only $29.95. And you get an amazing bonus* with it which, frankly, would be worth many times the purchase price by itself even without the core software. StoryWeaver is also covered by a 90-day money-back guarantee, and you can try the demo out too - it really is a classic no-brainer. StoryWeaver Writing Software
