So….tried Scrivener last night for my current work in progress.
I have to say, I like it. At least at first glance. I was stuck on where the story needed to go next, but when I used the corkboard feature it helped me to get unstuck.
I had an idea where I wanted the story to go, but being able to lay out “cards” which had a bit of the story set out on each one of them helped me discover what was missing and what had to happen to get me to where I think the story is going to end.
And best of all…it didn’t kill my desire to finish the story.
It’s not what I consider a proper outline (thankfully, lol) but just a bare bones skeleton which I think will help me progress because I could see the holes and what had to happen next.
Will keep all 2 readers of my blog updated on how it goes!

I got Scrivener a while ago, but so far I’m still using Word. The phrase Old Dog, New Tricks comes to mind…
