Summary: Terrible Software Misleading Description
Comment: This was given to me as a gift in order to help me write short stories. There was really nothing to this software except some hack's cliched views on what story development should be. This is not only a waste of money (in my case it was a gift) -this is a waste of time for anyone trying to figure it out.

Summary: A WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME
Comment: I purchased the product two years ago when I was drafting my novel. I went through the menus and tried to use them to outline my story and characters... my head still hurts. I got some index cards and outlined each scene, character, narration and a year later self-published my novel. To this day I look at the cover box of this product and shake my head...then I suddenly stop, because I remember it makes my head hurt even more.

Summary: For theorist only
Comment: This will hurt your brain. A detailed book needs to come with the software. It's too complicated and confusing. Don't bother with this if you use your basic instinct to write stories. Otherwise, you'll have to learn a whole new way of thinking just to enter a character description. I gave up working with this software in less than a week. Save your money for something more productive.

Summary: A complete waste of my time and money
Comment: I bought this hoping to use it as an editing tool for my writing. It is not at all what the description purports it to be. It has an extremely long learning curve and the user is expected to plug into the software writer's idea of novel creation, rather than provide tools of support to enhance or streamline the writing experience. The clipart employed for distinguishing the characters is completely hideous. I don't know who this product is intended for, but in my opinion, the description of the software's intended purpose is completely misleading. At the risk of sounding cliche, I would still say that this is a nightmare rather than a dream.

Summary: It Works If You Do
Comment: Writer's Dreamkit is a good program, but if you are looking for it to write your novel or screenplay...hate to tell you...it doesn't come with a genie who will grant your wishes. It does come with some good tools to help you.
