  1. The chapters from Prologue to 14 are in pretty good shape and represent about 1/2 the novel. I've put a title in parenthesis behind the Chapter number. I've added the chapter numbers and working titles myself. That's not something Scrivener adds, but it's super easy to move chapters around and rename them.
  2. Scrivener templates will open up a whole new world of writing and allow your creativity to come alive. Some Scrivener templates are available directly through the Scrivener software, while others are created independently and must be imported. Either way, you will be able to find a lot of Scrivener templates that will help you through any writing project.

Scrivener (/ˈskrɪvənər/) is a word-processing program and outliner designed for authors.[6] Scrivener provides a management system for documents, notes and metadata. This allows the user to organize notes, concepts, research, and whole documents for easy access and reference (documents including rich text, images, PDF, audio, video, web pages, etc.). Scrivener offers templates for screenplays, fiction, and non-fictionmanuscripts. After writing a text, the user may export it for final formatting to a standard word processor, screenwriting software, desktop publishing software, or TeX.

Scrivener allows photos, URLs, and multiple other file formats, to be dragged into its interface as well. Because of its breadth of interfaces and features, it has positioned itself not only as a word processor, but as a project management tool for writers, and includes many user-interface features that resemble Xcode, Apple's integrated development environment (IDE). One computer programmer has called Scrivener 'an IDE for writing'.[7]

Platforms[edit]

Keith Blount created, and continues to maintain, the program as a tool to help him write the 'big novel', allowing him to keep track of ideas and research.[8][9] It is built mostly on libraries and features of Mac OS X from version 10.4 onward. In 2011, a Windows version of the software was released, written and maintained by Lee Powell.[10]

iOS[edit]

Scrivener for iOS was launched July 20, 2016.[11]

Linux[edit]

There is no official release for Linux, but there is a public beta version[5] which has been abandoned[12] but still is available to use.[13]

Macintosh[edit]

The latest version of Scrivener for Mac is version 3.1.5, and requires macOS Sierra or newer.[1] Scrivener can be obtained from the Mac App Store, but since the Mac App Store application is only usable on OS X 10.6.6 and later, users of earlier versions of OS X must buy it directly from the developer's website instead of the Mac App Store.[14]

The company also makes Scrivener 2.5 available for earlier version of Mac OS X, but claims it is the final version of the software that was built to run on both PowerPC and Intel systems running Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.8. This version is available on the direct sale page in the sidebar titled 'Mac OS X 10.4–8 and PowerPC'.[14]

In addition to the Scrivener version 2 releases, the direct download page provides access to the obsolete version 1.54, but licenses are no longer available for purchase. The 1.54 release is compatible with Mac OS X versions 10.4 through 10.6.[14]

Windows[edit]

The latest stable version of Scrivener for Windows is 1.9.16.[3] It is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. Windows versions (1.xx) were released after Mac OS X version 2.xx, and are priced the same as the Mac version despite the Windows version having fewer features. The developers have stated version numbers will be aligned when version 3.0 for Windows is released, currently in beta[15] and expected during 2021.[16] Windows version 1.0 users who buy now will receive a free upgrade to version 3 upon its release. Previous Windows version 1.0 owners will be able to upgrade to version 3 for $25.

Scrivener for Mac is a professional content-generation tool for writers that automates and simplifies the process of composing and structuring of long and difficult documents. Powerful features of Scrivener give you the complete control over formatting of such documents, leaving the writer with much easier time of creating ever-important first draft version of document.
If you are tasked to write a document that requires lot of referencing, tracking of notes, concepts and research documents that may or may not include audio and video files, then the app will without a doubt increase your productivity and enable you to create better end product.
Features and Highlights
For writing. And writing. And writing.
The app is the go-to app for writers of all kinds, used every day by best-selling novelists, screenwriters, non-fiction writers, students, academics, lawyers, journalists, translators and more. Scrivener for macOS won't tell you how to write—it simply provides everything you need to start writing and keep writing.
Grow your manuscript your way
Tailor-made for long writing projects, the app banishes page fright by allowing you to compose your text in any order, in sections as large or small as you like. Got a great idea but don't know where it fits? Write when inspiration strikes and find its place later. Grow your manuscript organically, idea by idea.
See the forest or the trees
Whether you plan or plunge, the tool works your way: hammer out every last detail before typing a word, or carve out a draft and restructure later. Or mix your methods and do a bit of both. In the tool, everything you write is integrated into an easy-to-use project outline. So working with an overview of your manuscript is only ever a click away, and turning Chapter Four into Chapter One is as simple as drag and drop.
Research within reach
Need to refer to research? In the app, your background material is always at hand, and you can open it right next to your work. Write a description based on a photograph. Transcribe an interview. Take notes about a PDF file or web page. Or check for consistency by referencing an earlier chapter alongside the one in progress.
Getting it out there
Once you're ready to share your work with the world, compile everything into a single document for printing, self-publishing, or exporting to popular formats such as Word, PDF, Final Draft or plain text. You can even share using different formatting, so that you can write in your favorite font and still satisfy those submission guidelines.
Note: 30 days trial version.
