Could I please just make an official apology to bartastechnologies.com? In my earlier post, as somebody (who was actually being very kind - thank you) pointed out, I referred to Copywrite as “Copyright”. I had clearly been drinking too much Cava at that juncture upon celebrating finally getting Scrivener out. So: sorry.

Ron - I am the developer of Scrivener, and really, asking about Ulysses is in no way trolling. Scrivener owes a lot to Ulysses. I got the idea for Scrivener back when I used a PC, but when I moved to a Mac, Ulysses was the first writer’s app that blew me away. I ended up writing Scrivener only because Ulysses didn’t quite fit my own needs, but I know that a lot of folk swear by it (and I can understand why). I would strongly recommend downloading all of the writing programs you can find and then seeing which one fits you best. I hope I have listed most of them on http://www.literatureandlatte.com/links.html. The main ones - aside from Scrivener, of course :) - are Ulysses, CopyWrite, Avenir, Jer’s Novel Writer and newcomer Storyist. I may be missing some though. Then, of course, there are the fantastic non-dedicated writing apps such as Mori, DevonThink etc. See what works for you - I hope you find the tool you are looking for. Be sure to let me know what you think of Scrivener if you do try it.

All the best, Keith
