At the recent LDStorymakers conference, I presented three classes on Scrivener. Oh wow, I was NERVOUS.

But, I did not die or puke. This is how I measure success. YAY!

Because of the interest level, I’m going to start sharing a few bite-size Scrivener tips here on this blog from time to time.  Starting now.  (At least at first, these tips will be quite simple and entry-level.)

So here goes:

If you are one of the many who have wondered about this program…have heard writers talking about it…there is an easy way to give it a try. Scrivener offers one of the most generous trial periods I’ve ever seen. You can download a free month trial, no strings attached. But here’s the amazing thing–the trial is for a month of actual use. 30 days of actual use. This means if you use it twice a week, your trial will last for 15 weeks. SWEET.

By that time, you’ll know if you are in love or not.

At the end of your free trial, if you decide you don’t want to buy it, you can export your files out to a word processing file.  All nice and safe. If you do decide to buy it, your files created during the trial convert over to the paid version without a problem.

The program is available for both PC and Mac. It costs $40 for PC and $45 for Mac, unless you win NaNoWriMo…they offer 50% off as a winner goodie. That is seriously cheap for how powerful this program is.

Easy and risk free. Try it and see what all the fuss is about.
