In Scrivener, I can paste just about any size graphic into a document. Take a look at this diagram: Scrivener allows pretty much any size graphic. This category was the make-or-break category for Storyist. This category goes to Storyist! Creating a World As I did so, those plot points were automatically linked to the section. Then, clicking on one of the sections, I was able to create the plot points. First, I laid out the sections (Set-Up, Response, Attack, and Resolution). Storyist gives me something that Scrivener doesn’t: a really easy way to link scenes to plot points (the documents with light bulbs) to sections (the documents with gray hashtags). You can see the basic outlines in the screen shot above. Not sure if I’m doing it right, but both programs let me try to interpret those concepts. I’m trying to learn how to implement the ideas Larry Brooks writes about in Story Engineering. Consider this screen shot comparing the two programs: Again, Scrivener is in the upper left and Storyist is in the lower right. There’s good news for Storyist here, too. So, I have to give this important category to Scrivener. I don’t want to have to stop and think of how I have to center/modify/etc. When I’m in create mode, I like to just slam pictures into the page. I can’t change the size of the display! To me, that’s a big problem. I can add pictures to the Storyist character pages, but the size is fixed. It let me create the layout I wanted, and it gives me an overview display that lets me see the characters at a glance. It looks particularly good on my iMac’s 5K Retina display. The good news for Storyist? First, I liked its dark-mode. Here’s a sample of what the two looked like: Scrivener is in the upper left Storyist, in the lower right.
