TL;DR: Scrivener 3 for Mac is on sale for £21.54 as of May 10, saving you 38% on list price.
It’s hard enough getting your fleeting thoughts down before they’re gone from your mind forever. You’re already battling writer’s block and procrastination on a daily basis. You don’t need your word processing app holding you back and complicating matters. So, close out of Microsoft Word for good and snag a subscription to Scrivener 3 for Mac.
Scrivener was designed with the writer’s mentality in mind. In fact, novelist and Luther creator Neil Cross, NYT bestselling authors Michael Marshall Smith and April Henry, and noted tech columnist Andy Ihnatko — just to name a few — all use Scrivener for their writing projects and have wonderful things to say about it.
Scrivener 3 is also a project organisation system that lets you write in a way that makes sense to you. It lets you jot down thoughts in storyboard form, add notes, save revisions, and do necessary research, all while writing in the same document. You can basically build your workflow to suit your style, however chaotic that may be.
With “scrivenings” mode, you can drop random ideas together in one place and edit them as part of a single document. In outliner mode, you can work with an overview, arrange drafts, review a synopsis, and more, while split mode allows for viewing a pair of documents side by side. There’s even a corkboard mode that helps you take a step back when you need to and rearrange things as you see fit.
If you started writing in Microsoft Word and need to transfer things over, Scrivener makes that process simple, too. You can import your Word and OpenOffice documents, style and all, in just a few clicks. Named Productivity App of the Year and UK App of the Year at the UK App Awards, Scrivener is exactly the tool you need to banish page fright and start writing in a way that makes sense to you.
For a limited time, you can snag a lifetime subscription to this game-changing writing tool for just £21.54 (regularly £35.19).
