Notes are your scratch pad for everything that supports your writing but doesn't belong in the book itself.
What to Use Notes For
- Character sheets: Keep track of physical descriptions, backstories, and relationships
- World-building: Maps, histories, magic systems, cultural details
- Research: Facts, quotes, and references you might need
- Plot outlines: Scene lists, story beats, chapter plans
- Revision notes: Things to fix in the next draft
How Notes Work
Notes live at the bookshelf level, meaning they're shared across all books on that bookshelf. This is intentional—your research and character notes often span multiple books in a series.
Creating Notes
Right-click on:
- A Bookshelf and select "Create New Note"
- The Notes folder and select "Create New Note"
Organizing with Tags
Each note can have tags for easy categorization. Use them however makes sense for your workflow—by project, by type, by status.
Notes and AI Chat
When you use the AI Chat feature, you can include notes in the search context. This means the AI can reference your character sheets and world-building when answering questions about your story.
