At the moment I write my novels on Scrivener, but someone mentioned Final Draft 9. Has anyone used these apps, and what's the best one to use?

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards. We ask all new members to pay it forward by inviting 5 fellow creatives to the network and by spreading the word of Stage 32 through other social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities.
Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community. I very much look forward to your contributions.
Thanks, and have a creative day!
RB

Expand commentI would hardly consider the writers of Mulan and Chernobyl controversial. The OP was asking about screenwriting software. Producing is totally different as you know and I'm sure any producer worth their salt would know Final Draft very well. I'm also sure Disney didn't send Rian Johnson's script for Star Wars back because he wrote it in Fade In. Almost all modern screenwriting programs read and write FDX.

Expand commentI know John and respect what he started with Scriptnotes. I worked at Disney for many years. Mazin is notorious for railroading anyone with an opinion. My answer was to the OP. In that if you are a writer that is fortunate enough to have one of your scripts in production or be asked to work on another in production, it would behoove you to be familiar with the software. Last I checked, FD is the only software that guarantees support to productions -- their contracts and liabilities to productions are enormous.
That sounds like Craig! Thanks for your input.
