Manufacturer's Description
Always liked the idea of being a budding writer but didn't know where to begin? Well, this is the perfect program to get you started and help you succeed.
Easy-to-use
This easy-to-use program will give you the confidence to plan and write a novel from scratch, helping you to methodically develop, organise and refine your story.
Characters
Create characters with the help of a database which can create 25,000 unique names and add personalities with the help of the profiling systems.
Events
The flexibility of this program allows you to adjust and track events, dates and characters. If you're brainstorming, it is easier to build up a piece of creative writing gradually without losing track of previous ideas something harder to achieve using written notes.
Ideas and Notes
Simply jot any ideas down quickly and easily, safe in the knowledge you'll always be able to find the again. You can even use the 'generate new ideas' function to give you inspiration if you are having an unimaginative day.

I was very impressed with this software as I had ideas for novels but just didn't seem to know where to start. The program helps you divide the novel writing into sections, allowing you to develop your characters, plan out all the important events and then finally write all the chapters. It's an excellent way of keeping track of the storyline and the characters without having to re-read what you have written several times.
The ability to generate names, characters and ideas is also particularly useful, although only if you are writing a contemporary novel as all the ideas and names are modern. The program does let you quite easily insert your own names and ideas though. For instance the Standard edition only comes with British and American names but you can quite easily get a list of French names and add a French name section to the program and paste the names in.
The notes section is also particularly useful for storing all of your research, the only downside is that you can't insert pictures or even link to them.
This program also helps put writing a novel into perspective, its no easy task by any means and is going to take a lot of time and hard work. Simply creating the characters, their relationships, the locations and the major events in the story can take a very long time and then you have to start writing the novel!

I chose to purchase this standard version instead of the professional mainly because of the price, and i thought it would be a great place to start, i think it is for the price, i have many books on how to write a novel, how to create scenes, characters etc, so all i really wanted is a tidy software package to put all my ideas into, this standard version gives you chapter, notes, event etc sections to write down your ideas, relationship charts for characters, timeline chart to make sure you get the right order of events which is really benifical so you chose the year your story starts and finishes, time of day each scene starts and finishes, it has a generate names section, 25,000 first names and surnames. Each chapter you write is done separately, so you can work on chapter 5 first if you want to.
A great place to start.
A great place to start.

I bought this software because I wanted to try writing a novel and because it was cheap. I didn't expect much at the price but I've been pleasantly surprised.
I can now keep all my notes neatly organised. The editor is basic but it works well and doesn't distract me. I like how easily I can convert my story into a formatted manuscript. This is very simple. I also like the ideas generator - it's helped me a few times when I'm stuck.
