Concept of book in WriterJournal

There is no explicit definition of book in WriterJournal, but creating a book is achieved by creating a folder served as a container of chapters, the structure should be as below__

--My Book (Folder):

--------chapter 1 (document)

--------chapter 2 (document)

--------chapter 3 (document)

….

Let’s start by creating a new folder served as a book

Navigate to the Home page, and click the new folder icon to create a new folder to serve as a book.
Enter book title and description
Add a cover image to serve as book cover page

Congratulations! Now we have our book folder prepared!

Add Chapters

Just like there is no explicit definition of book in WriterJournal, there is also no explicit definition of chapter. That sounds bad? Not really, this is intentional, as the platform is designed to be versatile and accommodate a wide range of use cases for writers of all kinds. To organize our content, we create documents that function as chapters within our book folder. Let’s get right into it!

Open the newly created folder “Forest house”
Create new document and name it as “The house in the forest” inside the created “Forest house” folder, write its content
Create second document and name it as “Seasonal Changes”,write its content
Create third document and name it as “Continuity”,write its content

Congratulations! Now we have our chapters prepared!
