Fictionary StoryTeller is structural editing software that analyses a finished draft scene by scene and shows novelists exactly what to fix.

Overview

Most writing apps help you produce a first draft; Fictionary starts where drafting ends. Import a manuscript from Word or Scrivener and it breaks the book into scenes, then evaluates plot, character and setting against proven story structure, visualising pacing, character arcs, setting use and story flow in clear reports and graphs. A guided, step-by-step editing journey teaches the craft as you revise, explaining concepts like entry hooks and scene goals in place. The company was founded by a bestselling Canadian author, and the separate StoryCoach edition gives professional editors the same structural toolkit for client manuscripts. Fictionary also runs live online courses led by professional editors, where writers work through their own manuscript scene by scene under guidance, and its community gives authors a place to compare revision progress with peers. Reports can be revisited at any time, so authors can import a revised draft and see whether pacing, character presence and story flow actually improved.
