After a decade of writing, I’ve realized the software matters less than your discipline. Any app that lets you create folders and text files can work. The real trick is having a consistent naming system and a separate outline document. I’ve written books in Google Docs this way, using Docs’ outline feature from headings.

Spending more time writing and less time fiddling with software features is the ultimate win. Find the tool with the least friction for you, not the one with the most bells and whistles.

I’m waiting to see what others say about this. I’ve been using the same basic word processor for years and am curious if I’m missing out on something that would really streamline my process. The chapter/scene juggle is my biggest headache in long projects.

Which Mac writing app works best for outlining a novel?

Does it have to be a dedicated writing app? I use OmniOutliner for my novel outlines. The level of control over the hierarchy is insane—you can collapse whole subplots, add columns for word count targets or POV, and style rows. It's the most robust outliner on Mac, period. Then I write the draft in a different app. Separating the outlining tool from the drafting tool helps my brain switch modes.
