Aspiring and accomplished writers alike know that disorganized thoughts can be a maddening hindrance to creativity. Especially when all of those disorganized thoughts are spread across a maelstrom of notebooks, Word files, post-it's, emails, magazine margins, storyboard sketches, and whatever else.
Liquid Story Binder is uniquely designed for authors, poets, writers, and novelists. No matter what your ability level, Liquid Story Binder will provide you with the tools you need to create, outline, organize, timeline, revise, storyboard, conceive, diagram, and format your work.
It even includes a built-in audio recorder in case you want to listen to the pacing and phrasing of a particular section, paragraph, or sentence!
Liquid Story Binder is completely customizable. Choose a color scheme that suits you, save window positions and open files, create workspaces, open dozens of windows simultaneously or just a simple textbox centered in the screen... it's up to you, your comfort zone, and your writing style!
Can't remember where you wrote that important paragraph? A Universal Search feature makes finding it a snap. Search every Chapter, Note, Builder, Timeline, Storyboard, Outline, Dossier, Sequence and Backup for a single lost word or phrase. Plus, the Repetition Visualizer helps you to find and weed out repetitive words and phrases, at-a-glance!
Extremely adaptable, Liquid Story Binder utilizes common TXT, RTF, and ZIP file formats, guaranteeing future access. It can be stored and executed off of a portable USB drive, and automatically creates an easy-to-access backup file with an entry for each day's changes.
Cool! I missed it when it was offered at "Giveaway of the Day". Here's another chance to grab it :) Windows users sulking over not having Scrivener should try out LSB (or buy a Mac...)
It's simply amazing.
Slow is normal for connection through an anon server. I dislike the 12 months licence that then requires renewal. Limited period is not mentioned on this page.
Once purchased, all future upgrades are free. Your purchased license does not expire. Jesse Wall Black Obelisk Software
I bought my first Mac to use Scrivener, a great program for writers but I spend time on PCs, too. I'm getting LSB to use when I'm stuck on Windows. C'mon, people! $15.95 and ALL future upgrades are free?! If you have even the slightest interest in this program how could you possibly go wrong?
Looks like a powerhouse! I can think of many uses, such as multimedia writing projects, organizing and storing my programming code snippets along with screen shots of what those snippets do, journals and more. Can't resist this great price, so I'm buying now even though it will be a few weeks before I have time to learn the program. Thanks!
I've been using this program since I downloaded it from GOTD and have been hoping it would show up here so I could afford to purchase it. I was VERY happy to find it on the upcoming list this morning and can't wait until the deal day arrives. This is the most versatile application of its kind that I have found. While there are a few things I would change, I have no doubt the "authors" will get to it soon. Liquid Story Binder is constantly being upgraded and improved and I have great faith in its future.
I've tried LB for a couple of weeks. It's a brilliant concept, but the human factors are a nightmare. Among just a few problems: *Great flexibility means great confusion - the tools are scattered illogically between different menus (and different menus in different menus). *Horrible documentation - the tutorials help - slightly - they will tell you how to start planners, listings, timelines, but there's almost nothing about how to use them. *Worse Help - more than half the things I searched for through help didn't find a reference, and the rest hit primarily (not exclusively) on trivial information that I had already figured out on myself. *Not WINDOWS - the program is not windows standard. You cannot go full screen, for example, by double-clicking the top window frame. The save key is F12, not Ctrl-S and so on. *Command line interface. Most of the best features, dossiers, timelines, outlines, are crippled by an ugly command-line interface. You cannot edit information where you're using it (in the timeline, outline, etc) but have to use the text bar at the bottom. There are many things LSB has done right (avoiding proprietary editor formats, for example)., but due to its shaky interface and poor documentation, I will probably not purchase the product.
I have to agree with VK Says. LsB is probably the best software I have seen, but its very hard to find how to work the brilliant tools LST have. Poor menus, help doesn't work , not intuitive , etc. Once you find how to work with it, it will be a dream. But the learning curve is very hard. It seems a software made by nerds, you know. They think everything is simple. A tip. LSB; hire someone who don't know the software, see for yourself the problems the person have, and then change it. Just do this. No more upgrades needed. BTW, you can hire me. oportunide1AThotpop.com. My first language is not even english, so you will need to understand me. Thats what you need to make a customer happier. Understand them. Me.

To both of those last comments, I was originally bothered by the shortcuts, then I found out that I could configure my own hotkeys. And full screen can be shortkeyed to. Most right clicks will get you excellent context menus. I personally love the bottom editing on dossiers (my file type of choice), but truly, whatever floats your boat. If you want to reccomend to Jesse (the designer) what menus would make better sense to you, go for it. He's working on the new version as I type. I personally figured out the entire software in a day or two without referencing tutorials except the three steps (to figure out where to dump all my previous "fodder" which was builders by the way). I found it very intuitive and could not live without it.
Does LSB have the capability to "hide" and "reveal" text (I forget the technical name the outliners use)? Also, how well does LSB handle outlining, particularly moving topics up or down? Thank you. Bob R.
