Update (5/21/2020): I've started a spin-off series called "yWriter vs Scrivener Presents," which will explore other writing apps and software similar to yWriter and Scrivener, and will be included in the yWriter vs Scrivener Playlist (linked at the end of this video). You can check out the first entry in the new series, which covers the overview and review of a developmental writing and editing app called Fictionary StoryTeller here: youtu.be/2OIVHKxOpks
