See How All
the Pieces Fit Together StoryView is the only writing tool that lets
you create the elements of your story and arrange them on a timeline. You see
what pieces make up your story, as well as how much time (movies, TV, events)
or how many pages (novels, other stories) each piece occupies. Zoom back for a
full panorama of your entire story and "see the forest for the trees," or zoom
in to focus on the smallest detail.
Take spontaneous ideas and place
them at any point in your story's timeline - even if you don't know what comes
before or after that piece! You add the building blocks of your story in any
order and immediately see any gaps! (SEE
