Novel
Long-form fiction with chapters, scenes, character material and manuscript guidance.
Template Library
Start with a structure suited to the kind of long-form project you are actually writing.
AuthorsDrop is deliberately simpler than a tool with hundreds of preset files, but it is not limited to one or two blank templates. The web/Mac workspace includes project formats for fiction, non-fiction, academic writing, scripts and poetry, with format-specific starter guidance.
Mystery
Crime, clues, suspects, timeline discipline and a fair-play reveal.
Romance
Relationship-driven fiction with emotional beats, midpoint change and HEA/HFN guidance.
Non-fiction
Research-driven books, essays and guides organised into clear sections and chapters.
Thesis / Dissertation
Academic long-form structure covering front matter, literature review, methodology, results, discussion and references.
Screenplay
Industry-style feature screenplay structure with scene headings, action, character, dialogue and transitions.
Feature Film
Feature-length screenplay starter with beat guidance for acts, midpoint, all-is-lost and finale.
Stage Play
Acts, scenes, character cues, dialogue, stage directions, cast and setting guidance.
Short Story
A compact fiction structure for flash, short stories, novelettes and novellas.
Fantasy
Manuscript structure plus world-building support for regions, factions, history, characters and rules.
Sci-Fi
Manuscript structure plus planets, societies, technology, terminology and research guidance.
Poetry Collection
Organise poems into sections with sequencing, collection-length and front-matter guidance.
More than a blank file
Templates can define the project type, useful binder structure, script behaviour and tailored writing guidance. Fantasy and Sci-Fi projects can also include world-building material; screenplay and stage-play projects use dedicated script elements rather than prose formatting.
What we will add next
The library can grow without making the New Project screen unwieldy. The direction is to add optional starter packs for specific jobs, such as memoir, travel writing, biography, one-act play, television episode, research report and book proposal, while keeping the core interface clean.
