I've been reading through the forum and the documentation, and I still am a little unclear on a few things -- though overall, I love the way this works.

I write long novels, between 250K and 350K. I've always done this on Word (boo, hiss), and always wished for an alternate where I could have an easier time structuring things and finding them.

So here I am with Notebook. A couple of what might be dopey questions:

If I have 25 chapters in Word that I'd like to import into Notebook, what's the best way to do this?

Once I have a chapter imported (I did a couple manually to see if I could figure things out), here's the big issue: should each chapter be in a cell, or each paragraph? We're talking maybe forty-fifty chapters by the time I'm finished, so that would be a lot of paragraphs. But if it means it's easier to jump around and find things, I would do it... if I don't have to do it manually, paragraph for paragraph.

There are some very short chapters and some very long ones with internal breaks (double returns). If I put each section between internal breaks into a new cell, would there be any advantage to that? And how would that look in the outline?

Chapter 1
Divide 1
Divide 2

If I did this, would I still be able to read from section to section or paragraph to paragraph without having to jump over dividers?

For once I'm learning from past mistakes and trying to get the procedure down before I've done a lot of work tha has to be dumped.

Any help much appreciated.
