From April 2021: It’s been a few months since my Endnote and Scrivener integration discoveries. Since then I’ve been drafting and redrafting my PhD research proposal in Scrivener along with my list of references, then copy/pasting it all into Microsoft Word for supervisor and peer review and feedback, WHAT?
