That seems very organized and systematical. I like Scrivener but it has far too many options for me as I just want to type the words out. My favorite thing about Scrivener is being able to see my constant word count.

Is it difficult to import a novel to Scrivener that was written originally in Word?

nope

Does this software allow you to have links in your table of contents to help the reader go straight to a particular chapter❓ I'm new at this and trying to publish a ebook on Amazon. So glad I came across your page.

It does. You have to download a Amazon key to get this working for .mobi but it does work. I will do another video about just that if I have time this weekend!

Have you tried things like Notion or Coda? Any thoughts on how this compares against them?

Hello, can I ask you, how can you turn off the autocorrection in the scriviner? Because I also wrote in different language and it makes me mad, when everyone is underlined by red line (hopefully you know what I mean). And thanks for the video, it was really helpful. And the cover of your book looks awesome.

Thank you! In the version I have (scrivener 3) - it's File - Options - then the third Icon over is 'Corrections' and it's all there. If you've got the previous version, though, it could be different. Let me know if it works!

Not sure if Scrivener solved the deal-breaking quirk Chris Fox talked about in his video, _Why I'm abandoning Scrivener,_ but it's something to keep in mind when exporting a manuscript for publishing. He pitches Vellum instead, after being made to see the light by his friends.
