I did not know, for instance, that you could get your work read back to you on a Mac.

For instance, I thought using the Collections function would get too complicated but now that I have seen how it works I see the feature has definite possibilities for my future work.
I purchased Scrivener to use for writing manuscripts because so many authors mentioned it. I bought it, installed it, tried to use it and left it. I figured I could finish writing an entire novel in Word before I'd ever figure out the complexities of Scrivener. Then, several weeks later, this popped up when I was viewing. Withing hours, I had imported all my work from Word into the program and was up and running. The advantages include not having multiple documents for each character, research, saves for deleted material, and the main manuscript but having everything right in front of you contained in the binder.
Too much to wven describe here. What a life saver. A writer friend recommended Scrivener after I had trouble formatting my book in Word. My fault, not Microsoft's! I am a complete technophobe! Scrivener is brilliant but I needed help, and I found Karen's book. I had it open on my iPad in front of my Mac and it was brilliant. It is very easy to follow with the graphics, and everything is laid out perfectly.
A great book to have if you aren't computer savvy! This is a book that I have bought both for the PC and on the Mac. I have read nearly every book that has been written on scrivener and I am pleased to say that Karen's books suit me the best and I think they are excellent. She clearly shows the features of the program in an elegant and simple way and she rapidly moved my ability to use Scrivener ahead.
I had used a similar program previously, but did not find the scrivener tutorial as useful as I had hoped as I do enjoy the visual way that she teaches. It is easy to go through the book quickly, but strangely there is a considerable amount of content that is very helpful.
I do not have any reservations about this book whatsoever in either version. I would highly recommend the book and this author. I had purchased Scrivener four years ago, attempted to use it and decided the learning curve wasn't worth the effort, even after I had spent far too much money on how to use the software that merely complicated matters.
This time I know I will be able to learn to use the program properly. An excellent guide book. If you are a visual learner, I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
