This is an excellent script program it really helped me come up with ideas for my company’s award winning peformance.
Rating: 4 / 5
This program does not begin to compare with MS creative writer 1. That one ( which is not available any more) had lots more things to do in it. You could make many shapes with the words, add sounds and pictures to your pages. It was easy to navigate. This one (Creative Writer 2) has only about 10% of the abilities of the first one. The directions are not easy to follow and the defaults cannot be erased.

They seem to particularly like the ease they can create images and display them, the sounds and animations, and the audio tooltips which tells them how to use the product.

This is a great kids program, but I was searching for a script writing tool. It came up when I did a search for “script”, but it never said it was for kids, or that it didn’t have a format for plays. Good introduction for using MS Word at a later date for kids.

My daughters had the common problem – writing was too frustrating, and it was too hard to come up with ideas. While using a computer eased some of the “I messed up and have to start over” problems, adult software was too hard, and most children’s software too simple. Enter an early version of this program! Wonderful enticing nuttiness! Suggestions to start writing from! Sound effects with every change in font size! The “toaster” icon for printing!
My daughters started writing, and never stopped. My wife still prefers it to Word. I’d rate it six stars if I could!
