Scrivener : The Ultimate Software for Writers [A Walkthrough]

Описание: If there’s one bit of software that I recommend to all my students it’s Scrivener. Why? Well, I use it, I think it really helps to be able to organize your thoughts, plan your writing, and keep everything in one place.

In writing, planning and organization are crucial in keeping you on track and accountable.

In this video, I want to give you an overview of the software and how I use it in my writing process.

Hi, I'm Mary!

I'm the author of the novels When You Read This (Indie Next Pick and “Best Book of 2019” by Good Housekeeping), Privilege (Today.com “Best Summer Read”), and Palm Beach (New York Post “Best Book of 2021” and “like a sandy beach, equal parts beautiful and uncomfortable” according to the Associated Press). My memoir, You Might Feel A Little Pressure, was released by Third Rail Press in 2025.

My books have been published in 13 countries, and I've written for the New York Times, The Atlantic, Slate, and more. I founded an MFA-alternative, The Book Incubator, which has now helped hundreds of writers finish their books over 12 months and continues supporting them through publication (yes, forever!).

When I’m not writing, I’m probably building a fort with my 7-year-old son Finn or bathing with an overpriced Lush bath bomb. I live in Dallas, where I spend my free time trying to domesticate a stubborn tabby and shamelessly watching reality TV.
