      non-red columns are acts (Act 1, 2A, 2B, and 3 in Aristillus 3: Absolute Tyranny, and acts 4A, 4B and 5 in Aristillus 4: Right and Duty) red columns are large state transitions / synchronization points horizontal rows are individual plot lines 😭 = char low point 💣 = action

      4/ first time I've done it myself, but keeping stuff in ~10-15 parallel text files was too cumbersome I think I'll finish the sheet and THEN go back to the more detailed text files, w the SS as a top-level referencehttps://twitter.com/edwardcossette/status/1455547086221479940 …

      This is fascinating. I’d never considered using a spreadsheet for writing a novel. Of course, as never having finished a novel, my observation is lame. Still…

      5/ I'd really like some tool that was a combo of spreadsheet and text file like...I can click a cell, and it expands into a text file, but then can shrink back to a cell, or I can select a row and it is displayed as a file that concatenates the N cellshttps://twitter.com/edwardcossette/status/1455549381567033348 …

      I just counted my various text file ‘notes’ for said started by not finished novel and stopped counting at 30, so I understand why the spreadsheet is helpful to give a much better meta view. It’s a real ‘duh, seems so obvious to use a spreadsheet’ realization. And the emojis too!

      7/ wife suggested 3"x5" cards on a table, and while I def see some benefits, this wouldn't fit on one table, and I'd need to lay down a grid of masking tape, and and and andhttps://twitter.com/KarlKGallagher/status/1455552841850966026 …

      I've wound up building spreadsheets for most of my novels. There was an early one where I used the sticky notes on wall method, but it's easier to keep multiple variations of a spreadsheet. Never had more than four threads going at once, though.

      8/ EXACTLY! you can see in post #1 in this thread that the most obvious visual aspect is the big red bars, the synchronization pointshttps://twitter.com/KarlKGallagher/status/1455553193816072196 …

      What I've really needed the spreadsheet for was synchronizing the timelines. Sometimes I'll write each thread independently and then figure out when scenes happened relative to each other.

          Perhaps your spreadsheet software will let you add a URL as part of the text in the cell, and then convert it into a clickable URL ? And if so, perhaps it will also do that with a file:// URL ? Excel does this, for example. pic.twitter.com/sALgCiM4pr
