Wordsgood 526 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 It can be done with Evernote, but I think you'd be better off using a specific writing app like Scrivener. There a number of other free and paid writing programs on the market now and a quick Google search should bring up several hits.Due to it's search and cross platform abilities, Evernote would be a great place to store your research. But as a full fledged writing program, not so much.Good luck.Hello,I am in the proces collecting info to write a book about my life in approximately 35 self contained chapters.At the moment, I am using sticky notes, transfer text to a Word Doc and hope to find it after.Any suggestions welcome!

ScottLougheed 1,316 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I have to agree with wordsgood here. Evernote can definitely play a significant role in organizing your material, but ultimately I think an application like Scrivener will serve you better in the actual preparation of a manuscript. Evernote would be fantastic to store your research, as Wordsgood mentioned, but also for jotting notes or creating basic outlines or brainstorms that, once a bit more polished you might recreate in Scrivener, which has some writing organization capacity. Evernote is like, the scribble pad, scrivener is where you make sense of those scribbles. Link to comment
