Im trying to put a Scifi universe down on (digital) paper and Ive found that the process doesnt really lend itself to linear type word processing software. Least not for me.

Is there some tool that writers use for plotting out long arcs or keeping their reference material easily accessable to avoid anachronisms or inconsistencies. Possibly something that allows internal linking to other chapters?

All very good points and advice, thank you.

To be honest I'm of the "work smarter not harder" school of thinking, I'm sure I can absolutely develop my own methodology but Id hate to waste 6 months of my time sorting out something that works for me only for someone to say "I cant believe you dont use Program its so much easier. So I thought id lead with the question.
