How do you keep track of characters, places, story events and general outline while working on a novel?
I don’t use anything fancy. I use SimpleNote. The app let’s me track what I have written and it allows me quick access to points I have written. It is also available online which allows me to work on the novel anywhere I want. I used to use Evernote, but the app got too fancy for my liking, so I switched to SimpleNote. I like its simplicity.
I am not trying to promote one app over another here. I was just curious, as a writer, what are most other writers using to keep track of story development.
A curiousity…

Lots and lots of bits of paper with multi-coloured writing. I use my laptop (just word 365) for longer information like character descriptions, but for the plot I need it to be a physical thing I can play around with. I do a terrible job of belonging to now! 😉

🙂 If SimpleNote works for you, continue using it.
My goodness, I have just remembered that I have not logged into my Evernote account in months.
Have a great day, Bob!
