Scrivener has all the tools the average writer would need to use to write their book. The problem is, no software in the world will make you a better writer than learning the skills necessary for the craft. Do yourself a favor and sharpen your spelling skills, and know more than just a cursory amount of grammar. Learn about writing style. Learn a little bit about as many topics and subjects which your ability or resources permit. You must avoid becoming an ignorant writer, especially if you wish to point to something meaningful about life, or some subject, but you find people are pointing out how wrong you are, and t actually can cite more examples of their opinion than you can for your own. Learn to design and plan every aspect of your book. Once you learn how to do that, Scrivener may become a most useful tool for you because much of the software is based around the planning behind what you are writing. I have tried the Software. I find I can plan better and be a better writer having learned what words mean and how t are used, and how grammar can make a true difference in the mind of a reader understanding the intent behind the words. I use MSWord, or if I must, one of the relatively decent FREE office programs which have word processors. OpenOffice and LibreOffice (which are essentially the same software) are just fine. Both have spell and grammar checkers but are there only to help catch what I may have missed. Even writing on Quora I use Grammarly for Google Chrome to catch spelling and grammar errors which I may have overlooked, but I refuse to rely on that extension. Scrivener is just another piece of software that was designed to make a writer’s life easier. Some people swear by it. You will never know the answer to your question until such time as you download and try it for yourself. It is difficult in some places, real easy in others. Of course, that can be said for any extant word processor.
A more popular word processor and I prefer not to use it because it is much harder to navigate. I will also not use many programs for editing in Word with a stylus. I prefer to use Quip, because of its ease with creating simple templates and using images. Some people find Scrivener just a great tool for their day-to-day writing work. And that is fine. I do not see myself as a writer. I am a user and I would rather not write in a plain language. For me, writing is not a creative passion. If it were, I would no longer have writing to do. When it is time to write, you need to spend more time learning about yourself as a writer and then get to work. I think it is safe to say that Scrivener does not help a writer grow and develop as a.
