Might I suggest we start with a defined 'wishlist'. I am assuming we are interested in a novel (not a text book with linear progression of topics and chapters following a logical sequence).
I'm not a novelist, but if I was to write a book... 1. collect ideas (non-linear) 2. map out a basic story line (plot) (semi-linear because always in flux) 3. list characters (linear) 4. develop characters and subplots (non-linear) 5. option to visualize how all fits in the overall plot (non-linear) 6. Interweave and insert sections and subplots in the overall plot (linear) 7. Finalize and export completed plot/story to wordprocessor for editing (perhaps even edit in TW and just export for publishing.) 8. Possibility of inserting pictures, image, videos, etc... Am I out of tune of what you are trying to achieve?
