Oh yeah if you've never seen it before I bet that screenshot was weird.

I use Scrivener! (I also use Scrapple by them for the Narrative game I'm making but it's useful for brainstorming if you're a person who does that) It allows you to put a story, your notes, chapters, drafts, table of contents, and all your references in one place and access it easily all at once in a few different ways.

as you can see I took that to mean all the things I write in one place. (I just opened up a few of my dice-rolled prompt options) My therapy notes are also in there. You can organize things in folders, by labels, or even make a folder out of another document. I use that one in particular mostly to save the snippets I cut. You can also put Photos in there for reference and open them in-program. There's this like pin-board thing, too, for quick ref.

My colours and stuff are all custom because I'm photosensitive, there are other themes if you don't like all this darkness. You can customize the fonts and stuff too but I just use dyslexie for everything to make it more legible for my dyslexic ass. You could easily make and switch between different Scrivener files but I basically just have all my fanfic in one file because ADHD.

I normally use the sidebar to keep the notes/outline open while I write the draft. Then I just edit the draft up to the final draft rather than make new documents. There is a draft system, Status, Labels, ect. I don't really use those personally (other than the labels to colour the folders so they're separated and to make the notes/taglist stick out) but they are very cool. I bought it because I wanted everything in one place and a way to have notes open while I write. You can also set writing word-count goals for the day, see your writing statistics, and lots of other little cool things.

There's a mobile app you have to buy separately, that if your scrivener backs up to the cloud you can open your scrivener files and write on the go, too.

I highly recommend it. Not that expensive (in comparison to other big names in writing programs at least), has lots of cool features, lets me ADHD all over the place with ease
