I’ve been tinkering with the beta version of Scrivener for a while now and just ponied up the money to buy it.
I’m a university prof. in the social sciences, and Scrivener fits with how I do my own writing for academic projects. I also think it meshes nicely with GtD sensibilities: make it easy to dump the junk from your brain and then focus where you’re ready to do work.
I also own WriteRoom, which is a great app, but I’ve found that with this latest version I prefer the full-screen mode of Scrivener and am using that instead. Now, if Mellel or Nissus Writer could add support of Word’s “Track Changes” features, I could ditch the MS bloat-ware entirely.
