Content types

The fourteen kinds of writing Oghmere supports, and what comes with each.

Every project has a content type — the kind of writing you are doing. It is the choice that shapes everything else: the setup interview, the document types you can add, the stages each document moves through, and which coaches are recommended. You pick it when you create a project.

What a content type brings

  • A document-type rosterthe kinds of document you can add — chapters, scenes, statblocks, episodes, and so on.
  • A stage machinethe path each document follows, from Ideation to Final edit, plus any stages the type adds.
  • A recommended coach setthe coaches turned on by default for this kind of writing; the rest stay available.

Changing type later

A project’s content type is set when you create it and shapes the setup interview. Pick the closest fit — you can always add a blank document, which is available in every content type, when a piece does not fit the mould.
