Overview
Archived Records lists items that have been hidden from active views. They are preserved so you can recover useful material later.
When Should I Use This?
Use it after restructuring, cutting a subplot, retiring a location, removing a character or setting aside an experimental scenario.
How To Use It
Restore items that belong back in active planning. Delete forever only when you are certain the material should be permanently removed.
Example
You might restore an archived clue after discovering it solves a payoff problem in the final act.
Writer Tip
Archive first, delete later. Drafts change their minds.
Common Mistakes
- Using Delete Forever as cleanup before you are sure.
- Restoring material without checking whether it still fits.
- Forgetting archived items may contain useful earlier ideas.
