Here’s an example of a non-fiction notebook. I finished writing the rest my first novel’s first draft in Evernote, but now, I write my drafts in Word so I can see my word count and have a backup of everything.Īfter I save a chapter in Word, I copy it over to Evernote, where the organization and layout is the best.

This is what chapter one of Warfare Book I looks like! I sort my notes this way so the chapters are in correct order. You could always create a separate notebook for purely outlining stuff, but I wanted to keep everything together so I could easily access it.

10/10 recommend. ?) I’m begging to be pinned. I’ve used it for my novels, stories, blog posts, notes, and to-do lists ever since! I was able to totally organize that 123k monster and know exactly where everything was. That’s over 50,000 words I had to scroll through in one single note!īut a couple months after I began writing my novel, my sister introduced me to this awesome thing called Evernote.
