High 90s next week. I've never explored Scrivener. But everyone seems to adore it. I stick with one thing and figure it out technology-wise or I'll be trying to figure out how it works for months instead of writing. But if you can, let us know!!Jennifer Haweshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06303079974406921717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17266281.post-31803316570080168332016-06-01T20:23:19.769-04:002016-06-01T20:23:19.769-04:00I guess that's why I haven't bought Scrive...I guess that's why I haven't bought Scrivener.

I hope you figure out the software though. That find and replace would be horrible if it won't allow you to do the whole document. And getting rid of half your stuff sounds wonderful. I think that's what spring cleaning is all about, right?

Here, on the high plains of Colorado the snow from our last snow storm a few days back has finally, this morning, disappeared completely (at least from what I can see from my windows.)! I won't feel safe from snow until after Mother's Day because it has snowed here on the past two. <br /><br />I'm not familiar Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17266281.post-27691716114825513092016-05-04T13:41:27.245-04:002016-05-04T13:41:27.245-04:00You make my heart shudder with the word MOVE!

If so, you might have to go the hard way and google. <br /><br />The part I love is importing webpages when I'm doing research. Then I can refer to them using my split screen. <br /><br />Glad to help if you need me. <br /><bremaginettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324981140248692448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17266281.post-25649612527638211662016-05-04T11:41:49.689-04:002016-05-04T11:41:49.689-04:00Thanks for the Parallels promo!

We are not moving, but I have a serious clutter problem that can only be ignored for a few more months.

I should probably just write first since Scrivener won't do much for me unless I'm writing. Good luck with what's ahead. Getting rid of 50% of your stuff sounds kind of appealing to me. I'm been working on that for the past few years but I'm not even close--maybe I've gotten rid of .05% if that much.<Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17266281.post-31372320911012868842016-05-04T08:26:10.753-04:002016-05-04T08:26:10.753-04:00The thought of boxing everything up in my home and...The thought of boxing everything up in my home and moving after 44 years is mind-boggling.
