    I LOVE Liquid Story Binder. I used to carry around tons of notebooks and pads to keep all my notes for my various WIP. Now I just input my thoughts within the book or article file, and LSB provides a multitude of ways in which to do so. (Thus allowing me to prioritize its importance).

    Pros: I can keep it on a flashdrive (which, I of course, save on various other drives in case I lose it). I love attaching pictures to dossiers (I have dossiers for worlds, characters, fictional businesses, families, you name it), and I really like being able to save a multitude of music playlists for each book. (There are tons of others, but this is just what I can think of off the top of my head).

    Cons: I wish I could find a way to copy from book to book, but no luck so far. Also, I wish they had more variation in the normal colors for backgrounds.

    I really recommend it if your thoughts tend to come out in a jumbled heap and you would like something that easily, and cost effectively provides organization.

    I also love this software!

    I was working on a historical and needed to keep track of of a detailed timeline. This software helped me ‘bind’ together the timeline, genealogical charts, & location layouts. Of course it also handled the standard character images/descriptions and the writing itself.

    And ya can’t beat the price.

    Bottom Line: Worked great for me.

    Thanks for pointing this out, Ilona! And thanks to the others for their candid opinions. I downloaded the demo and plan to put it through its paces. I’m hoping it works because I do need a way to keep all the stuff straight besides the Excel spreadsheets and the various notebooks. I’ll always keep a paper backup because paranoia is an author’s constant companion, but this bit of software looks very intriguing.

    Oh my goodness, yes. I wish it came in Mac!

    I like Scrivener, myself–a Mac-only program that I only regret can’t handle tables very well. (But that’s technically a problem with the Mac OS.)

    If you want to copy book-to-book, just go in the My Liquid Story Binder folder and manually copy files over.
