Why I Love Scrivener, Reason #578
My work-in-progress has multiple points-of-view (point-of-views?).
It's getting complicated to ensure that they flow correctly along the timeline of the story.
In Scrivener, I can make "collections" - inserting each POV into a separate folder.
Then I can see how that POV reads on its own, without the others.
(Does that make sense?)

Outstanding organization. My students and I adore the behind the scenes look into your writing process and I appreciate having such authentic examples for lessons.
Thank you!
That's good to know, Mike. Thanks for telling me!
What a great use for Collections, Barbara.
I'm 'Hooked on Scrivener'

Nice, Barbara. I've never used the Collections function, so this is great. I'm working on a multiple POV novel draft too, and will definitely check it out now. I find the research folder invaluable, and I love that everything I need for a project, including image and sound files, can be saved within a single piece of software.
Oh man, I use and love Scrivener, but I have never achieved such color and organizational loveliness. Guess I'm going to have to read the directions.
