Story Builder is writing software for novelists, worldbuilders and game masters. Keep your characters, locations, maps and timeline in one place, and write your chapters beside them.
Anyone writing something long enough to lose track of. Novelists and series authors. Fantasy and science fiction worldbuilders. Game masters keeping a campaign and its cast straight. Screenwriters and short story writers who want an outline and a character database in the same place as the draft. You can plan first, write first, or move between the two — nothing has to be filled in before you start.
Characters, locations, organisations, creatures and events, each with the fields you decide matter. Link any of them to any other.
Write your draft chapter by chapter, with autosave, version history, word counts and goals. Read the whole manuscript in one view when you want to.
Give your world its own eras and dates, and place events, births and battles on a timeline you can actually read.
Upload a map, or generate one, and pin your locations to it in layers. Towns can be generated too.
Record how people, places and factions connect, and see the whole web as a graph.
Private notes for the thoughts that have nowhere to go yet, and a whiteboard for ideas before they have a shape.
Pick a template or start empty, and turn on the parts you want — chapters, characters, maps, timeline.
Add the world as the story asks for it, and write your chapters against it. Invite an editor or a co-writer when you want one.
Finished stories can be published to the library for readers, on your own schedule.
Make a project and write something. Everything else can wait until the story asks for it.
