    HELLO again! I've got myself an Alphasmart Neo2 word processor and I LOVE using it! Yeah, the PORTABILITY of it is GREAT! I think that the company that originally made 'em should STRONGLY CONSIDER making NEW IMPROVED ones. The NEWER ones should feature MORE USB connectors and the NEWER models should be offered in MORE COLORS too! THANKS for your PERSONAL REVIEW!!

    I tried everything including Dabble. I loved Dabble's Plotting Information Grid that automatically links to your manuscript so that you can refer to it as you write. It's like JKR's Excel-like spreadsheet were she made her own plot grid to follow her Potter novels. Only Dabble's Plot Grid is merely for information. It would have been nice to click in any part of the Plot Grid and begin writing from there, but this is not possible. As a writer this kind of thing was the functionality I was looking for and out of your entire list I never found it. LivingWriter allows you to write from their plot grid and so does Novel Factory. Only I found there were too many clicks to get to do what I wanted to do and both of these were not as straight forward as I needed them to be so as to illuminate distractions when trying to work quickly and clearly, and none of the writing software out there gave me a clear Birdseye View of my novel. That is why I moved over to NovelPad; because it does everything I need it to do and then some. I can write from any scene, character or plot card and I can link everything together as I so wish and color code and tag to my hearts content where I can see my entire novel clearly illuminating that feeling of getting overwhelmed by very long documents. Lastly, the new updated Wavemaker and YWriter which were both mentioned a few times in other posts are absolutely awesome free writing apps that do much to assist writers by the way, but for my needs - as an author that writes the way I do with the needs I have - NovelPad just does it for me. My only wish with NovelPad is that Christian from NovelPad adds SCENES to the Insights Sort Feature so that I can sort and write from their Insights SCENES by PLOT cards which will help me that much more and which would give NovelPad Dabble's awesome plotting information functionality with the added benefit of actually being able to write directly from the scenes and plot cards which is something Dabble just can't do right now. I am eagerly waiting for NovelPad to add this one extra feature as it will enhance NovelPad's Plotting functionality greatly and it will be of much assistance, I'm sure, to many writers currently using NovelPad.

    A series? about people being aware they're in a world of tropes is Second Hand Curses by Drew Hayes. Jack, Frank, and Marie help people that the Narrative has abandoned/unable to anything for in a world of fairytales. The series part is questionable as Hayes has multiple ongoing book series and SHC is maybe fifth in list of importance/demand.

    I’m writing a second chance romance at the moment, the main characters were kids when they kissed for the first time, but then one freaked out and said that they couldn’t be together. He had his reasons, but that was the last convo they had for years because of reasons. And then the main character starts dating someone else but that guy comes back into his life and starts as a friends but moves to something more when that relationship dissolves. So I feel like it’s not a typical second chance romance.

    I'm posting this comment in December 2024, right before Christmas. I just ordered myself an Alphasmart word processor from the online retailer, Amazon.Of course, it's used but the company assures that it's in excellent working condition. I can hardly wait to see what it's like as a writing device! I'll let you know what happened.

    I went to college as an education major. I student taught in a school library. I had an undergraduate minor in Library Science. After graduation I worked as a school librarian/media specialist and pressured my MLIS while working. Because of a major out of state move and before the internet, i attended 2 different master programs. Other required classes you failed to mention are reference materials, administration, and cataloging. My specialty is children’s literature. The technology classes at that time are totally different, computers were just starting to be used in libraries. I had to learn a computer language and never used that knowledge.

    If you had trouble in the transfer, and you're using Windows 10, I'd say that's part of the problem. Windows 10 is always finicky. I use Linux Mint, and while I don't own an Alphasmart, I do know Mint picks up printers without any issues or needing them to install. The same with keyboards, mice, phones, cameras, cards, pretty much anything else I've had occasion to use. Linux Mint would probably pick up the Alphasmart without any problem, too. I use LibreOffice as my word processor, it's free, full featured, and stable.

    I just recently tried this for a revision. I also thought I might find it too complicated. But I already know I love it. I have a column for suspects, so I know when they show up. And I have a column for surprises, so I know that I'm giving my readers surprises/twists along the way. The book Story Genius suggests keeping track of why something matters to the main character, so I may add a column for that, too. You reminded me that I need a column for the day the scene is taking place. That matters in my stories. THANKS for making this video!
