creative writing - Is there any good time-line software out there?


I write mostly speculative fiction, and use Scrivener for writing and note-taking.


But I'm looking to start crafting timelines to keep track of the exact year and months events in the distant and close past occurred.


In a perfect world: I'd like for the software to be easily manageable, relatively low-maintenance or easy to deal with, automatically "sorting" (or "pinning" the event in the correct place on the line) and easily scalable.


Does anyone know of anything at all like this? If not, what do others use to create time-lines?



Answer



We are currently working on Plotist, a timeline software created for writers. It's still a beta, but anyone can sign up and try it out.


The main feature is that it connects notes and visualization, so you can check and edit your notes while building the timeline.
