Script,
July 1999:
"StoryBuilder
returns to the tried and true idea that all
stories rely on sound, dramatic structure principles."
"StoryBuilder helps
a screenwriter create well-rounded characters,
settings, conflicts, and plot resolutions."
"One of the program's most useful elements
is its confrontation of common screenwriting
and storytelling pitfalls." "The program
offers close examinations of how to make truly
vivid characters." "..Fully customizable
and easy to use..."
Fiction Writer, July
1999:
"A means of organizing the infomation you
need to write a fully realizable story."
"As software, it's much slicker [than competive
programs.]" "You'll have a good idea
where you're going. There are also a number
of tools you can use to check your progress."
"...You can as easily use it to create
a literary story as a mass-market one."
"I prefer StoryBuilder
and Writer's Blocks, as they organize
your creativity, rather than channeling it through
their philosophy."
Writing Tools, Columbia
Herald, March 1999:
"StoryBuilder will
be welcomed by fiction writers everywhere."
"With this accesibile and immensely helpful
software, you can give your stories and novels
the strong structural foundations they need."
NovelAdvice Cyber Journal
"...StoryBuilder
is straightforward and direct, full of
practicality and wisdom" "Another
great way to use this program is as a smart
tutorial on fiction writing. ..It will really
take you step by step through what you should
have learned in college." "Your readers
deserve a logically organized, well-crafter
story. [StoryBuilder] really can help- by making
you think through every decision you make about
your story."
The Creativity Web, Charles
Cave
"StoryBuilder lives
up to its name as a design tool to assist the
writer in developing the components of a piece
of fiction, and checking the final concept."
Testimonials:
"For the first time, I have a complete
outline of my novel that works!! StoryBuilder
really helped me put that together...
One thing that convinced me to try it was when
I realized it was computer-aided design and
not mixing and matching ideas and phrases. I
work with engineers a lot on my 'real job' and
I understand how invaluable CAD software is
for their work. No one would attempt to design
anything these days without it. So I thought,
Yeah! That should work for "designing"
stories too."
Joan Kremer
"From a non-believer, I rapidly became
a convert to the cause of writing software.
Outlining is not the most entertaining part
of writing, and it's great to have a handy tool
that helps me plan my story the way I want it.
The writing goes so much faster and easier."
Melissa McCann
"StoryBuilder is
a great little software package for helping
fiction writers. I have it and use it. Easy
to use and not too expensive." Dave Owens
"Love the software, especially because
I can customize it!"
