Alpha Testing for Snowflake Pro

Posted on June 29, 2009 in Uncategorized

I’ve been quiet on the blog lately because I’ve been working frenetically on my next software product, “Snowflake Pro,” which will make it fun and easy to work through the steps of the Snowflake method. “Snowflake Pro” also creates the skeleton of a book proposal, after you’ve completed the first 6 steps of the Snowflake method.

[Note added on Tuesday, June 30:] I posted the above yesterday and asked for volunteer alpha testers. I received a flood of emails and have selected a team of alpha testers that is small enough for me to be able to manage all the comments. I have put a number of people on the waiting list. I believe I have enough alpha testers for now. Thanks to all of you who volunteered!

    Sent you an email already. I just bought a brand new laptop that has Windows Vista. Happy to be a guinea pig.

    I could test it on Vista. I have genuine Beta site testing experience.

    I’m interested on testing your software. I have used your Snoflake article in plotting my first novel.

    Randy,
    How do you determine the price you will charge for your product? I am working on an ebook but find varied advice for price points. I’ve considered $7, $9 and $15.00 for about 25 pages.
    Thanks,
    Sally

    I would be very interested in seeing a demo of this product. I have Windows XP. I’m trying to use the snowflake method through word and am finding it very helpful

    Hi,

    I’m changing from Vista to windows 7. That means erasing all my software and reinstalling them.
    I purchased snowflake pro about a week ago.
    Would I be able to reinstall the program…as if yes – How?

    Thanks,
    Henya

    Randy sez: Yes, you can reinstall Snowflake Pro after upgrading to Windows 7. When you bought Snowflake Pro, you received a download link. Go back there and grab a fresh copy of Snowflake Pro and reinstall it.
