Default SASSAFRASSARASSA!

EXCUSE Me Dien and Gordon,

*EDITORS NOTE - As you can see I've been Classically Trained to
Use BIG Words by watching Cartoons. Thus "Sassafrassarassa.")

There will be a short pause while I cut and paste
the 1st 50 pages I've put on SowPub into a folder on my computer.

THEN onto "Scrivener."

Turns out when I try to Import From each item in the Thread
the entire SowPub Page shows up in Scrivener.

No offense.

But I don't want your logo and intro and Top of Page Stuff
on the top of every chapter in my book.

So I DELETED it.

Instead will hand carry each Chapter in the thread over to a
computer folder file.

AND then Import to "Scrivener"

GOOD thing I bought "Scrivener for Dummies" because - as I suspected -
the way I write and Scrivener are NOT COMPATIBLE.

In Spite of all their Blather of "How it's flexible enough for all styles of writing."

NOT SO Kemosabe.

ONE EXAMPLE:

To Use The "Scrivener CorkBoard OR Outline Features - you have to
put all the content of your book Into the "BINDER" section first.

Which is STUPID.

I WhiteBoard (Brainstorm)

and

Outline --- FIRST - before I write a book.

Good thing I didn't throw away my Pads of Paper and Pens!

Thanks,
Glenn
