As a fan of personal knowledge bases, siloing my novel(s) in a separate app from the rest of my writing would bother me.
In fact my data is already split between Semantic Synchrony[1] and org-roam[2], and it's a bummer.

- Tagbert 5y agoI’m the opposite. I prefer to separate domains of activities and often use separate tools for that. My work notes are in OneNote. My personal notes are in Apple Notes. Long form writing is in Scrivener. This helps me separate mind space as well as reduces the overhead of managing files and data within a domain.
- pwinnski 5y agoMany writers, likely the majority, feel the opposite. The prevalence and popularity of "distraction-free" writing software suggests that having projects siloed away from each other is a popular feature. That said, if you're regularly accumulating notes in roam, and then wanting to reference those notes while writing in novelWriter (say), then yeah, being able to import those notes would be good.
