Title: Suggested programs for cataloging story ideas
Post by: TandyLion on Sun 15/02/2009 06:43:59
Too many thoughts. Too many characters, species, locations, cultures, languages, etc.

I've searched through many previous topics and threads, but oddly did not come across any suggested programs to possibly help catalog a very large amount of data for any enriched story line. I've heard of NovelPro, and a few others, but those were from threads from 2004. I have one specific file I'd like to organize a little more properly, as right now its simply one LONG OpenOffice Doc, about 65 pages worth and about a hundred unique embedded Hyperlinks. A few too many for me.

So, are there any often used programs to help organize and keep track of such thought?

After reading this (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=36024.msg472224#msg472224) I'm sworn in on FreeMind. Maybe you find it useful too, it takes some getting used to but  can be quite powerful a tool.

I'm in the same mindset as Ghost, as I was going to link to the mindmaps thread.

Those types of programs aren't exactly suitable for my application, but oddly enough I found TreePad listed on the thread and its working fantastic. So alls well. Thank you for the link.
