Author of Buttonless: Incredible iPhone and iPad Games and the Stories Behind Them.

I’m convinced that without Scrivener, I wouldn’t have been able to complete my book in time for my deadline. I needed to organize and transcribe nearly 100 interviews while working on Buttonless, and Scrivener is designed beautifully to accommodate such a daunting task. Sifting through and formatting hundreds of thousands of words is unbelievably easy, and the program runs surprisingly smoothly even on my now-aging Mac. I will never attempt a large-scale writing project again unless I’ve got a computer with an installed copy of Scrivener on hand.
