I've tried some of the demos of story development software... some
I've liked, and some I haven't.

I have found some freeware tools I'll be putting up on the "Files"
section shortly. A couple of templates for MS Word (laugh if you
will, but it *is* incredibly popular), an "object-oriented" XML-based
screenplay writer, a plot-logic clarifier (you'll have to see it; I
can't explain it adequately) and a storyboard planner. Good tools,
great price.
Let me know what you think.
