"Great Product! Can't believe how much more productive it's made me! ... And purchasing Storybook Pro for graphs was VERY worthwhile. ...loving this program as is... I'm using it for my new novel and since I think in a non-linear fashion having a tool that I can jump around in and add/subtract from any scene and move any scene whenever I need to is an absolute dream. I'm probably 40% more productive. Sure wish I'd had it for my last novel."
- Steve

"Storybook is one of the most brilliant writing tools I have come across in my 20 years of professional writing. I've been writing magazine articles for quite a while now but I've dabbled in the dark arts of fiction and never gotten past the planning phase... now I know why! I didn't have the right tool."
- Shawn

"Auf diesem Wege möchte ich Ihnen einmal sagen, dass Storybook wirklich eine tolle Software ist. In diesem Jahr habe ich meinen ersten Verlagsvertrag über einen Kriminalroman abgeschlossen und arbeite jetzt an meinen zweiten Buch. Storybook und Papyrus-Autor sind die Programme, ohne die ich mir ein Arbeiten nicht mehr vorstellen kann. Vielen Dank dafür."
- Marco Pfeiffer (kriminet.de)

"Your program is wonderful.  The planning and plotting of a novel probably represents 30 to 40% of the total time required. Storybook Pro enables a tremendous increase in the writer's productivity."
- Joe S. -  Cherry Hill NJ USA.

"Just installed 3.1 Very nicely done! I like that I can easily see what stage a given scene is in. The icons are very easy to understand, at a glance. The push button view change is also much improved. I really like the changes! Thank you for making it even better!"
- phaltak

"
Hi, I am a user of Storybook Pro. What can I say other than it is the best story or writing tool I have ever found! What makes it superb is that it allows you to plan your story, or any kind of writing (even academic) by following plot lines, characters, timelines, locations, etc. When you have a complicated plot, keeping track of things becomes difficult, and this tool helps tremendously. Other tools focus on writing environment, which is useful, but how do you keep track of 7 main plot threads, 30 characters over 10 years in 20 locations?"
- Pavi

Congratulations on producing a fine piece of novelling software!!"

And man, how much do I love the plot strands feature! My novels always have 3-4 plot strands, so this is just perfect. I'm planning my next novel using this."
- Helge
