Appreciation post: my old notebook vs. Trello for plotting out stories
I spent three years plotting novels in a spiral notebook with rainbow highlighters. Last month I moved everything over to Trello on a whim. The difference is insane. I can drag timelines around, color code character arcs, and actually see the whole story at once. Has anyone else dumped physical notes for digital and never looked back?

Oh man, I felt this so hard. Digital is just so much easier to tweak.

Ease of tweaking is real, I get that @charlie_ellis. But for me, the physical act of writing with a pen helps me think deeper. Your mileage may vary, but I found I was just shuffling cards around instead of actually working through problems.
