It's cheap, it's awesome, and it's on sale. You will probably wind up writing more with it than you have in ages. It doesn't do the dishes, but hey, nothing's perfect.

Calli, it's Push, which is not easily streamable

Aw, bummer. Sorry, I'm not familiar with it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I certainly would love it if more writing happens, so...we'll see what happens.

It's worth the $20, that's for sure.

It's worth full retail, even. I feel I should request Scrivener as a fandom for Yuletide.

You really should, considering how evangelical you are about it.

However, Scrivener deserves that level of evangelical devotion. It is AMAZING.

ION, in Fandom Trends Make No Sense To Me, almost kitchen curtains -level schmoopy fic about Furiosa and Max and their TRU LUV post Citadel takeback. I don't get it. At all. I don't understand how other people get there.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

How is scrivener for non-fiction. With all the great note taking, can it do simple endnotes, footnotes and crossreference?

Apparently excellent, but I've never used it for that.

Yeah, me neither, but then again, I don't really do schmoop and don't really get it to start with, which I feel is something of a personal flaw. That said, In Fury Road, I am doubleplusbaffled.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I'm only hitting the longfics so I really haven't come across that, but tags that make me boggle include Cheedo/Slit. There was a good gen one that treated Fury Road as a continuation of the Myth of Max, where Tom Hardy's character grew up on the legends (as the Feral Child) and took the name for himself, and had his own family and trauma.

Also, while I respect the honesty of tagging "old fic reworked into a new fandom", you get an automatic skip.
