I did that with my first book and it completely did not work for me 😭 I do still keep writing group crits in scrivener but tbh will probably be transferring that over to obsidian as well. Happy to show you how I'm organizing things in obsidian if you're interested!!

I love that this says so much about your characters - Emile is very concepts focused while Cylus has a physical tactile focus, etc!
