StoryO™ takes story outlining and idea organization to a whole new level.  Designed by writers for writers, StoryO allows you to outline your story in broad strokes, jot down raw notes and ideas, flesh out details and then put it all in story order when you’re ready.

Use StoryO’s built-in story outline template or create your own outline topics and questions to suit different types of writing projects.  Enter events, scenes, notes and ideas onto electronic index cards.  Add text, characters and images to index cards to add even more detail then rearrange and attach them to timelines to develop the structure of your story.

StoryO is a great tool for aspiring and professional writers, students, bloggers, journalists and technical writers.  Use StoryO for screenplays, stage plays, novels, short stories, webisodes, essays, term papers, non-fiction works, and more!

Outline
Story Outline
Use StoryO’s built-in topics and questions to help you outline your story.  Create your own topics and questions or use the built-in standard topics and questions set.  Identify selected questions as “what if” to play around with varied story lines and outcomes. 
Index Cards
Index Cards
Enter detailed information for a particular event or piece of the story on an index card.  Arrange index cards into various orders within a sequence or move them to a different sequence altogether.  Save the different ordered index cards to play around with the storyline.  You can also attach characters and pictures to index cards to further identify who, what and where things are happening at that point in the story.
Timeline
Timeline
Each story/project contains a timeline.  The timeline can be broken up into segments that can be used as acts, chapters or any “segmented” measurement of time in the story.  Each segment then contains sequences (a collection of events) and each sequence contains index cards (the events themselves).  StoryO provides a virtual sandbox where you can organize index cards, sequences and segments to make up multiple scenarios for the timeline.  Using this methodology, you’ll find it extremely simple to set up paradigms for virtually any type of storytelling.  Start from the beginning, middle or end and work any way you wish to organize your ideas. 
Characters
Character Development
Create characters and enter background information.  Attach character images using StoryO’s built-in library of over 50 unique character images or import your own images!

Presentation
When you're ready, use the Pitch module to bring together multiple elements from your story to create a visual slide presentation to pitch your project.
