A while back I linked to Scrivener, a screenwriting application that was so much more than just a screenwriting application. It was more of a full featured app for all different kinds of creative writing with a screenwriting component built in. If all you need is a screenwriting app and you don’t have (or want) Final Draft then today is a good day to check out Montage.

From the Mariner Software website:

The _only_ screenwriting software exclusively developed for Mac OS X. Melding the theory that a simple user interface, combined with powerful and intuitive features, provide the best writing experience, Montage makes it easy to create, edit, and manage screenplays on your Macintosh. From the ability to import and export Final Draft documents, to using custom, pre-formatted templates for film, TV, and theater, Montage guides both the first time screenwriter or the seasoned veteran, from start to finish.

But Montage doesn’t stop there.

Once your masterpiece is complete, Montage allows you to submit, track, and send your query, synopsis, and scripts to hundreds of included industry contacts through Montage’s integration with Apple’s Address Book. A Montage-only feature throughout the industry.

Sounds like a nice app. But I say that today is a good day to check it out because for the next 1 day and 10 hours (at the time of this posting that is) Montage is available for $69.95 (that’s 50% off the retail price of  $139.95) from MacUpdate Promo. That’s not a bad buy considering Final Draft is $249. Enjoy a Memorial Day of writing and saving money!
