About this app

Write your first novel

Still can’t gather your strength? It happens pretty often. Writing books is easy; it’s hard to write good books. If this were not the case, we would all be creating bestsellers.
Every writer spends a lot of time thinking about a novel. Perhaps you are doing some research. You are calculating how the story will develop. You brainstorm, hear how the characters speak: it’s the essential part of creating a book. Your book has already formed in your head, and you are ready to sit down and start writing.

Organize your books

Before you get down to business, you should deal with organizational issues. It would be best to write down all the ideas in a form that you can then use. But why? Because our memory is unreliable and because your story (like any other that is at the same stage) has many holes that need to be patched before you start working. It would be best if you created a plan for the novel: in this case, it will not discourage you from writing.

“Snowflake Method”

The Fabula app is based on the “snowflake method” invented by Randy Ingermanson. You can quickly write novels, stories, fairy tales, fanfiction, any story. In just nine easy steps, you can create an outline for your book and start writing your first draft.
Fabula is your book writing assistant.

Ratings and reviews

Amazing app best writing app I found with many features and it's the easiest to use and not extremely complicated. Love the features and tools and that some of stuff behind a paywall can be assessed from ad viewing instead. The only thing that I feel needs improving is the option to sort stories like by completion amount or alphabetically and also allowing characters to have multiple relationships types with the same characters like one-sided love and friendship or friendship and one-sided envy.

I really like this app, but it has room for improvement. For one, when you create a series, the characters change throughout. The goals in book 1 aren't going to be the same as in book 3. But there is no way to set new goals without creating a whole new character sheet for each book. When you have 50 characters it becomes really tedious. There is also a duplication glitch. Next, the relationship chart loads sooo sloooow. I wish there were multiple chart options so you can make family trees.

So far, this app is very useful and elegant with just a couple functionality suggestions. I would love it if there was a way to rearrange items (like character appearance tags), import information from one book to another (like copying reoccurring characters in a series), and a specific section for setting/world building descriptions. Also please add dark mode! Aside those minor tweaks, this app is awesome!
