yWriter Review by
4.5/5

Writing an original story takes some doing, and immersing the readers into your world is the ideal result. The more ambitious you are, the quicker things can get confusing, so losing track of certain plot points and character developments is something you really wouldn't want to do. Luckily, tools to help writers with such processes exist.

yWriter is a software application that was designed to help novel writers more conveniently juggle chapters, scenes, plot points, character developments, and other such story elements, so that their story remains cohesive from start to finish.

Even experienced writers can have a difficult time managing all of the facets of their story: establishing a fictitious world isn't easy, even if you're just writing a simple story. The software comes as a solution for those looking to be more organized in their writing, as it facilitates keeping track of your chapters, scenes, characters, locations, and so on.

The practical interface contributes to this, as it enables you to switch between details about your chapters, scenes, project notes, and so on.

You can essentially be as detailed as you want with your descriptions. Create a new chapter, specify if it begins a new section, type in a description, and check the Latex Title option if you're working with that format.

When creating a new scene, it's best to be as thorough as you possibly can. Start writing your content, then fill in the information about the respective scene. Additional details about the goals, conflicts, and outcomes, as well as the scene's type can greatly help you be more precise with your writing.

You should also note down the relevant characters, locations, and items for a given scene. If there's something on your mind, it's best to jot it down under the Notes section. If it helps you create more evocative and atmospheric scenes, attaching a photo to a specific scene is possible through this tool.

Each part of your story should have some meaning, and as such, be sure to be as thorough as you can by providing details about your characters, locations, items, and so forth. Those individual elements are all represented, allowing users to write bios about their characters, note down their aspirations, and attach pictures or inspirations of them. Photos and descriptions can also be given for each location and item in your story.

yWriter is a tool that can help experienced and aspiring writers alike to be more precise with their storytelling, helping them more conveniently craft complete, engrossing stories.
