DramaQueen is desktop software for developing fictional stories, from planning and outlining through writing, formatting, visualization, and revision. Users can move among plot, outline, and script or narrative text as a project develops. Story tools include storylines, structure models, turning points, character profiles, story arcs, and visual analysis. The maker describes it for novels, screenplays, audio dramas, stage works, musicals, and scripted podcasts, and lists authors, dramaturgs, editors, creative producers, broadcasters, directors, and film scholars as intended users. DramaQueen can import PDF, Word, Final Draft, TXT, and RTF files. Paid editions export to Word, EPUB, Final Draft, PDF, and RTF; listed export formats also include EPUB3, Markdown, and Fountain. It can exchange Final Draft files while preserving screenplay elements such as characters, locations, notes, scene titles, and summaries. The app works offline, though license checks and automatic update downloads require an internet connection. Current downloads list Windows 10 or later and macOS 13 or later; Linux installers are for legacy releases. The trial provides 30 individual test days within three months before switching to the permanent free edition.
