What’s Scrivener?

Scrivener ("See the forest or the trees") is a software program that helps you write, organize, revise, and print just about any writing project you can think of—from novels to screenplays and cookbooks. I've been using Scrivener for my writing projects since 2013 and teaching writers how to use this software since 2014. I can't imagine writing without it.

Why am I teaching it?

Here's why I think my class is so great:

  • We don't begin at the beginning. My class focuses on how to identify your project's organization needs at any given time and then I teach you how to find those tools in Scrivener

  • In my experience, people take a class or read a tutorial but then they don't get to apply what they've learned. Then, when it's time to write, they don't want to spend their writing time remembering Scrivener. In my class, we do the organizational work during our time together.

  • As a programmer, I understand why Scrivener is set up the way it's set up. And as a writer, I get why that's confusing to "normal" people.  

  • I've been using Scrivener to organize my writing projects since 2013. I know my way around.

  • I've been teaching this class since 2014. I know I can show you what you need to know about Scrivener!
