Scriptorum

Plan. Write. Publish.

Scriptorum is a complete, local-first studio for planning, drafting, organizing, and publishing your novel.

Build visual planning boards, map relationships, arrange story timelines, develop characters and locations, write your manuscript, and compile publication-ready files—all inside one focused workspace.

Whether you are beginning your first novel or managing an entire series, Scriptorum keeps every part of your story connected without forcing your work into a browser or cloud service.

See Your Entire Story

Create spacious visual boards for research, scenes, quotations, checklists, images, references, and freeform notes. Organize complex projects with nested boards, customizable story collections, movable icons, colors, backgrounds, and layouts.

Use the Relationship Map to connect characters, locations, events, objects, and any other story elements you create. Those connections remain visible through consolidated profiles, allowing you to follow every relationship and narrative thread across your project.

Build flexible visual timelines for acts, chapters, scenes, story beats, character arcs, and parallel events. Resize and arrange them freely as your story evolves.

Write Where Your Planning Lives

Move directly from planning into a chapter-based manuscript editor designed for long-form fiction.

Stay focused with a distraction-free writing mode, configurable typography, chapter organization, word counts, writing goals, statuses, and project totals. References in character and story profiles link back to their exact planning boards and manuscript locations, keeping important context close at hand.

From Manuscript to Publication

Compile your finished book into the format required for its next destination:

• DOCX for editors, agents, submissions, and continued work in Microsoft Word

• PDF for proofreading, sharing, printing, and fixed-layout output

• Standards-compliant EPUB for ebook distribution and major publishing platforms

Configure book metadata, chapter order, title and copyright pages, front and back matter, cover artwork, scene breaks, and formatting presets from a unified compile workflow. Revise your manuscript once, then regenerate every format without rebuilding the book in another application.

Make the Workspace Yours

Scriptorum is designed to adapt to the writer rather than forcing every writer into the same workflow.

Customize themes, interface typography, colors, board backgrounds, navigation, layouts, and keyboard shortcuts. Organize multiple novels in independent book vaults and shape each workspace around the needs of that particular story.
