Bump on the scrivener survey results 
Hoo ha ha! Eggzackly!
I didnât take the Scrivener survey, because, um, I didnât know it existed (not using it much these days except for times when I really want to write carefully). But 2 million words of responses!? No wonder they havenât posted a summary. I just looked at the blog and, er, nothing except for some fun posts.
I get about a request for a survey a week and all of them are horrible (Scrivener excepted, of course, 'cause I donât know what it was). They donât realize that requesting endless distinctions equal utter hogwash or poetic whimsy. Whatâs worked, in my experience, is to be brutally simple and piquant:
Do we suck? (Y/N)
Does the Compile function cause you heartburn? (Y/N) Are you certain it wasnât too much wine? (Y/N)
Thank you for your time!
Thazzit. Seconds to do it. And theyâre so delighted they donât have to pick out their deep feelings on a scale from 1 to 20 they actually do show their deep feelings.
