Husband and wife authors of The 12 Bottle Bar.

Scrivener is the perfect tool for writing a cookbook — or, in our case, a cocktail book — especially one laced with hundreds of anecdotes, quotes, and sidebars. Working as a team, we found Scrivener to be an invaluable resource for dividing up work and tracking progress — allowing us to work independently from one another, easily merge parts together, and check in completed sections. Shuffling parts from here to there was a breeze, as was discarding sections to the Research folder — and resurrecting them again when needed. We truly can’t imagine writing another book without using Scrivener.
