W. I. P. – Advanced System for Novel Writers
Manage multiple novel writing projects completely in Notion
Description:
As a step up on the minimalist Writer template, this template allows you to manage all aspects of multiple writing projects in Notion – including research, world-building, character building, storyboarding, tasks, revisioning and editing.
