Using Obsidian, Scrivener, and Zotero together as a system

I love good tools, and as a writer, most of the tools I use are for writing. I appreciate the intricacies of good software, and I like getting into the guts of things to make them work they want I want them too. This is one of the reasons that I love writing with Scrivener, and other tools like Zotero and Obsidian. Here’s how I’m currently using them together as a system for reading, writing, research notes, citations, foot/endnotes, and bibliography generation.

Thanks for the write up. Helped me think about how I use Obsidian.

TIL about Scrivener. I mostly use Obsidian, but I like learning about other apps/tools and how people integrate them into their systems.

I probably won’t dive into Scrivener (909 page user manual is a deep dive indeed :sweat_smile:). But it’s interesting nonetheless to read how you’ve benefited from its use.

The fact you love using Scrivener means there’s something to it for sure—Thanks for sharing!
