Below are some workflows between my typical writing apps, using Markdown as a writing syntax. I can use Markdown to format my notes and texts quickly ready for publishing to my blog, through Scrivener, and even into my huge research and notes database in Evernote.

Note: this is a long post, so only for those who like to read of other’s workflows (I did not want to split them out into even further posts on the same topic of Markdown). Note that Scrivener users should look at the hot tip, which is applicable to other areas outside of Markdown also.

In March, I took a fascinating class with Gwen Hernandez on working with the software program, Scrivener. Scrivener, available from Literature and Latte, is widely touted as a totally wonderful program for writing, and while I had owned it for a while, I knew I needed guidance in fully taking advantage of its many features. The class was great. Hernandez laid out daily information in chunks that were just right to absorb and work with. The homework was easy and helpful. I end the month with a growing level of comfort with using Scrivener—in fact, this post is written in Scrivener. Overall, though, I still have questions about how useful it is when compared to regular word processors.
