Why take this course?

Not intended for use with Scrivener 1 for Windows

Do you want to know how to use Scrivener to make your writing life that much easier? Well Scrivener is not nearly as hard to learn as you have been lead to believe. I highly recommend binge watching the first four hours so that you have a good understanding of what Scrivener is capable of.

The ESSENTIALS section will take you on a complete walkthrough of how Scrivener works with plenty of real examples, a thorough explanation of the regions of the user interface and arrows pointing directly at the buttons mentioned in the transcript making it easy to find them. 

Once you know the basics you can go back, dig in to the Scrivener features that suit your writing style best and start creating your awesome content. If you forget how to use a Scrivener feature you can pop back and watch its clearly labeled lecture again. This may be all you ever need to know.

Once your project is underway you can go on to investigate some really cool Scrivener features in the EXPLORING FURTHER section of this course. 

These are not advanced or in any way more difficult to learn than the basics; just optional. You can watch all the videos and decide if you want to use them, or browse through the curriculum and choose features that will be helpful in your own writing.

Here's what an early reviewer had to say: 

There's a famous quote, "If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter." Karen Prince did take that time and delivered a course that is succinct and thorough. You'll be a master with Scrivener when you're finished. Out of the 50 to 60 courses I've purchased on multiple subjects here on Udemy, this is hands down the best! Thank you to the author! ~ Robert Sandstrom

Some spots the instructor doesnʻt cover in enough detail. Multiple examples would help. Meaning these areas need a bit of repetition. The additional lessons are more useful than the originals.

You should have enough common sense to have a narrator with a high-pitched soprano voice. I'm 82 and hear treble far better than base. It is very difficult to process her information. The course will be of limited value if this persists and I will take a refund. Will give it a respectful try first.

Overall it's a very good match. I'm savvy with computer programs so the beginning is a little slow for me, but I understand completely that the teacher needs to be able to reach all audiences so I wouldn't change anything about this class. In later sections, the focus on tech is more needed and more appreciated. Very well done.

This is a phenomenal tutorial thus far. I have already gathered enough useful information to be able to start a project.

Excellent course! Scrivener is an amazing tool, but quite daunting. This course really helped me dive right into Scrivener, getting me comfortable and acquainted with the program and all of its features and functions. There are so many tools. Originally I was intimated by the interface and the many options and functionalities of the program, but am now in awe, and quickly falling in love with the program and its almost unlimited potential for writing. The instructor is awesome, with the most charming accent. Thoroughly satisfied so far with the course. Thank You

A great course; a few features have been adjusted or changed in the recent updates but still a great course to learn Scrivener Windows. Yes, you can learn from YouTube videos or official documentation, but having a step-by-step course dedicated to the Windows version will help a lot in using Scrivener Windows.

So far, I really like the videos. I love Scrivener, but I really don't like an 800-page manual to parse through every time I run into a problem. This video by Karen is the best I've seen yet.

The material is excellent. The instructor's diction is perfect. Sometimes, I would have preferred more emphasis on terms, so that I didn't have to watch/listen a second time during a session. My learning style is needing to replay more than once. I appreciate the comprehensive scope of this course...it's the third SCRIVENER course I've watched in the last 6 years. Scrivener has become increasingly complex, and we WIN users have had to wait for Corkboard and some other crucial features. I would say that the course by this instructor is *the* superior in addressing advanced and standard features of SCRIVENER. I will replay this again, and I'm sure being in my 3rd round of Covid illness is slowing my learning process. Thanks to UDEMY and the instructor for a top course.

Great teacher. Slow, followable curser movements and voice cadence, concise and comprehensive lesson plan and presentation.

Because you can't see how the presenter is using their mouse or the window outside of the viewing screen, it's hard to tell how she does somethings. For example when dragging and dropping images into the editor, I couldn't see where she was getting the photo from.

I just got the course and I'm sure I'll learn alot on Scrivener, I just won't ask any questions to the instructor. I've seen questions from 7 months ago that are left unanswered and part of that problem is Udemy. If the get an instructor, they should be available to answer questions of students.

I am looking at a tutorial that teaches how to use scrivener. I want to be able to follow along. So far, I'm disappointed. There's very little in the way of instructions here. It's too broad.

Very thorough. I expect to be coming back for refreshers as I delve deeper into Scrivener. Thanks, Karen, for such an amazing course!

Good content and extremely helpful for leaning how to use Scrivener. A great reference when you aren't sure how to do something in the program. The only problem is that the volume is very low and sometimes it hard to hear the speaker.

Excellent course!. The best about Scrivener I have ever found. I was waiting for this course from Karen Prince as I also bought her other course on Scrivener for Windows.
