Thank you very much for your help and goodwill. I didn't understand how the bibliography system works in screvener. I installed zotero on windows. Endnote and other. I went to options, inderi. But I don't know how to reference it. I need to enter bibliography for books I'm venturing into writing. If you can help I'm grateful

I'm a bit behind watching the YouTube videos. On a roll here, 70.000 words in 8 days, some books seem to write themselves :-). Usually I'm more of a plotter rather then a pantser. But these chapters seem to know what the next one needs. Smile.
Oh, I by the way use Zotero as my citation manager by the way. It does work (sometimes) but it's a pain, really. I'm using the APA template from Literature and Latte.

The excerpt from the manual is unsettling. It sounds like if we need inline references and bibliographies, there isn't much difference between using Scrivener and goose feathers in terms of the amount of help one's writing tools provide. If that's the case, how very disappointing!
