StoryO

What is StoryO™?

StoryO takes story organization to a whole other level! With StoryO, writers can enter ideas onto electronic index cards, rearrange and attach them to multiple sequences and timelines, then develop plot points, multiple story lines and characters along the way.

Designed for writers by writers, StoryO gives the writer a way to outline their story in broad strokes first, then flesh out details later. StoryO does not force specific writing methods, but instead allows each writer to design their own paradigms and environments that support how they prefer to organize ideas and approach each story.

StoryO boasts powerful import & export ability with Final Draft® screenplays, export of pre-production information to Gorilla™ and Chimpanzee film production software™, and can export screenplays to Movie Magic Screenwriter®, Microsoft Word® and other word processors.
