OmniOutliner, a second look at story grids

Omni Outliner is rare and can be worth having, but two things to note:

1. You call it the poor man’s Scrivener. Just so others don’t get the wrong idea, I believe Scrivener is a one time purchase, where as OO is a subscription, so Scrivener is the better deal.

2. It is nearly unique these days in its columns, but GrandView 37 years ago had columns (I just always like to take the opportunity to remind people how great GV was).

But your post has me checking out Omni Outliner again. So, thanks!
