Hi Pamela, I find Plottr very adaptable. Right now, I am writing screenplays, so I change the word Chapter to Scene in the timeline and just carry on from there, adding new scenes as I go. If you are breaking your screenplay into acts as you go, which I don’t, then the default Chapter can be changed to Act and then your sub-topics can be the scenes in each act. Plottr helps me keep track of characters and settings, too. If you title your scenes with the action line of the scene in the screenplay, you can get a view that shows just scene cards and get a good look at the action of your story, which I find helpful in seeing whether I’ve left a character out of the story for too long. I could probably use it for a lot more, but I’ve got my moneysworth in just creating usable outlines. You can check the available templates, too, to see if any of those will adapt for you. If they’re still offering a free trial, I’d suggest giving it a try. Good luck with your writing!
