    I'm so glad I found your channel. Thanks so much for sharing this really helpful info and your writing process. I love it. I've been considering Scrivener, and now I know that I DEFINITELY need it to organize my many many MANY notes. LOL. I'll be following your channel from now on. Huge thumbs up!

    Loved the video. Would love to hear more about the plotting. And especially how the weaving works.

    So nice ! I love setting up Scrivener for a new project, this is always exciting !
    I used to put everything in my template, even all the personalities types for characters, all the writing methods handsheets but I found that it was maybe weighting down the template for nothing. Meanwhile I discovered Notion so I decided to put all those stuff away on Notion so I can concentrate on the writing only in scrivener.
    I would have a question though : How do you set up scrivener for the next phase after the 1st draft is over, all the corrections and editing ? Do you duplicate your 1st draft to back it up and work on a duplicated version for the 2nd draft ? How do you handle all the corrections, beta reading changes and editing ?
    This makes me curious :)
    Thank you for you channel !

      Sorry I'm so late to replying to this - so in short, when I do my first round of edits, they happen within Scrivener. I make notes in the notes sidebar as I do my read throughs, then go through and make all my edits just directly on the manuscript. I don't worry about saving old editions - but if I'm scared about changes I'll duplicate the scene/chapters and put them in my "Scraps" folder.
      The nice thing about my hefty plotwork is that I'm pretty confident with structure and arcs going into drafting, so when I do edits there's not too much I have to work on with huge changes that I'd be scared to implement.
      Once the manuscript is fully through my runs and betas, it goes into MS Word for my professional editors and never comes back to Scrivener.

    Would you be willing to do a walk through of how you use InDesign & Vellum?

    • @JessicaLynnMedina

      I've been debating doing just that - must be a sign for me to get on that one! Thanks for watching :-)

    How do you know when a plot would count as an action plot rather than a character plot? My MC is investigating a murder of her friend which is her plot but the murder ties into a global conflict - so would the conflict be the action plot?

    • @JessicaLynnMedina
      @JessicaLynnMedina  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ooooh such a good question! A lot of times plot points will overlap and one event can count towards multiple main points within a story. I go into this in detail in my video on plot weaving - how the threads weave together. You can check it out here, but let me know if you have any other questions about my process. th-cam.com/video/EW6dEP9F2ps/w-d-xo.html

    I purchased Scrivener on 12/23/22. I’ve tried repeatedly to open the download. Each time it opens it’s unreadable.

    Does anyone one out there does Scrivener using a PC - all these people doing videos are using Apple computers.

      Yes, I have Scrivener on my PC. I'm also looking for a Windows tutorial.
