Visualization

This is a spottily-updated list of miscellaneous resources I’ve come across dealing with data visualization in several forms.(...)

I'm looking for suggestions for data visualisation.

Nothing sophisticated but I've not found anything uncomplicated yet.

I need to plot a few time series which in itself is not very complex.

However, I would like to annotate the graph to indicate various events, e.g. with vertical bars from points to the x-axis, and the duration is going to be fairly long. Also, I'd like to both get an overview and look at details.

I've used gnuplot for a bunch of things but never got good results for cases like this, and I don't know how to do annotations to plot events.

So.. any ideas?

Goal–Obstacle–Outcome cards capture the core of the moment so you don’t write scenes that drift or stall.

This works for any genre, whether you outline or discovery write. It works whether you’re drafting or revising.
