    Both Plottr and Fictionary intrigue me. Plus, I like how you move freely from one to the other, depending on what stage of the writing process you're in. Thanks for making this - I just subscribed!😊

    I use both Microsoft word (on my laptop) and google docs (on my pc.) They are both very useful. I'll have to try the other recommended apps you mentioned.

    Hi Nancy. I have lifetime subscriptions for both Plottr and Dabble, and of course, Microsoft Word. However, I was unfamiliar with some of your other tools, particularly Fictionary. This one sounds very interesting to me and I'll definitely check it out. Thank you! P.S. I just subscribed to your channel.

    I always like to get more ideas about how to use AI to improve my writing. Each of the tools you mentioned has various subscription levels. Can you point out the subscription level you might think is necessary for each app? Also, I wonder if one needs or benefits from certain tools if one is writing creative non-fiction or memoirs.

    • @nancybasileauthor
      @nancybasileauthor  7 дней назад

      @@BruceWhealton No matter what you’re writing, Dabble is terribly helpful because it provides distraction free writing and a way to keep notes. As for subscription levels, start with the lowest. That way you’re not paying for anything you don’t need. If you bump up against features that require a higher subscription, then you can decide to upgrade.

    I'm having two issues. First, the book was in a PDF which Google converted to a Word Doc. During the conversion, all of the formatting became scrambled.
    Second, I need to add a Prologue or some sort of introduction at the beginning and move a section to the end but because of the formatting issues, I'm afraid to touch it!

      @ All of the apps in this video will help you write. But I wouldn’t recommend anything that would write it for you. Because that’s not writing. Try Googling how to write a memoir or autobiography. Or dictate it to a ghostwriter.
