Writers can feel it…if a book is working. If they are about to take the reader on a wild and crazy ride. It's not just a love of storytelling that keeps an author coming back for more. It's a love of words. Poetry in action. And the satisfaction of telling your story your way and knowing readers can't get enough—and neither can you.

A twisted timeline soon took root.

Radial Timeline began with a simple feeling: some stories need more than a straight line to hang a plot on.
Characters move through time. Themes cycle. Cause and consequence echo across chapters. Memory, history, and plot start speaking to each other.
For visual writers, layered stories can become difficult to mentally capture in ordinary outlines, spreadsheets, and scene lists.
Radial Timeline is built for that kind of work: books with hidden structure, nonlinear movement, emotional recurrence, and timelines that need to be seen to be felt.
