Organizing Your Book

Books and sections

Structure a project into books and sections — the building blocks of your manuscript.

Verkilo organizes a project into books, and each book into sections. This two-level structure is enough to hold anything from a standalone novel to a long-running series.

Books

A project can contain multiple books — the volumes of your series — all sharing one Series Bible. Add a book for each installment, and switch between them from the navigator.

Sections

Sections are scenes or chapters. They’re what you write in, tag, reorder, and export. Keeping scenes as separate sections makes it easy to move them around and to track which characters and locations each one uses.

Reordering

Drag sections in the navigator to reorder them. Because your character and location links live on the sections themselves, moving a scene never loses its connections.
