Parallels Desktop 13

No problem, Hugh.
Being confused with Steven is no offence, it's flattery :-)

Thanks Ken.
I didn't know about the improved Coherence mode. In fact, it was useless in vs12. If it works in vs13, that's good news and might be worth the update.

Thanks Paul.
(Not the answer I hoped for - but that's not your fault :-) )

Hi.
Is anybody using Parallels Desktop 13? How fast is it compared to the previous version?
I consider upgrading as vs12 is awfully slow on my Mac Mini (despite 16 GB RAM). They promise 47% faster ac...
Any Windows users here ?

Ken: God Mode also works in Windows 7. It's the same folder name as in Windows 10.

I use mostly Windows 10 and iOS 9; and from time to time MacOS Sierra (depending on the job I'm doing).
Notebooks as a Ulysses replacement

>Anyone else using Notebooks to a significant extent?
Not yet (at least not to a significant extent).
But I am also going to switch over from Ulysses, in particular, as there is a Windows app.

In fact the yearly fee is $40 - meaning $20 for customers.
CRIMPers = prospective time multipliers?

Alexander: Thanks for the hint to Dr. Fogg.
To quote from his site:
"Only three things will change behavior in the long term.
Option A. Have an epiphany
Option B. Change your environment (what surr...

With regard to "lack of discipline".
As a coach I've been working with a lot of people - often writers in trouble or procrastinating writers. Many of them told me they lacked discipline, stamina or wi...
Well, I don't think that CRIMPing qualifies as "procrastinating on purpose" - at least as Rory Vaden sees it. :-)
Interesting video, though.

Just discovered that you can password-protect notebooks on iOS - but not on Windows or MacOS. :-(

What would keep me from using NB as journal: no encryption.
Airstory - Appsumo deal

Thanks for your thoughts, Steve and Hug.
It's not my first team-writing project but the first with my better half. To reduce friction we decided on strict division of responsibilities and plan to wor...
Airstory - Appsumo deal

Steve, I just started such a writing project (with my wife). And I think we'll stick with what she is comfortable with, which is Word (plus Scrivener on my machine for structuring the project).
Airstory - Appsumo deal
6/26/2017
Hi there.
Appsumo has a special deal for Airstory - which seems to be some sort of Scrivener on the web (plus templates, plus multiuser capabilities, plus...): http://www.appsumo.com/airstory/

The only problem I see with syncing between various OSses: If you use the file encryption feature of CloudMounter, you won't be able to open the files on Windows or the iPad.

Resoph Notes Replacements?
5/1/2017
Hi Ken.
Why not use the desktop edition of Simplenote? I've been using it on Windows 10, MacOS and iOS for several months - syncing simply works.
Though I must say, I use Simplenote not as a notes re...

Oh, sorry for that. The problem is: I wanted to say that Word "headline 2" stylesheets are correctly translated into h2 headlines.
