Mark Continuity Risks Before You Revise a Draft — Free

Record a scene, prop, character state, and risk note so revisions do not quietly break what came before. This guide treats draft continuity as a physical working surface, so you can inspect the relationship instead of accepting a generic paragraph.

The proof surface

The ordinary version gives you a list. The filmstrip makes the missing relationship visible and leaves a named next step.

Why the flat version breaks

A flat checklist hides the decision that makes this job hard. For draft continuity, the missing detail is not more advice; it is the relationship between the source, the measurable field, the date, and the note you will act on. The companion card keeps those layers separate and lets you change one input without rewriting the whole page.

Use the filmstrip in four passes

01 · Bring the smallest useful sourceEnter a specific scene or chapter, a non-negative continuity checks, a date, and one concrete note. Do not paste identifying details you do not need.
02 · Let the physical metaphor sort the workThe card turns the inputs into a filmstrip with frame windows, prop threads, and a grease-pencil risk strike. Its spacing, columns, or route order carry meaning; the result is not a raw paragraph.
03 · Change one field and compareUse the second or third starter record, then edit one value. The result should change for a reason you can name. That is the useful check against false confidence.
04 · Keep the next action modestUse the printed or copied result as a handoff, review prompt, or planning surface. Verify outside facts with the source before you commit to a high-stakes decision.
Sample data, not a verified claim: Chapter 7 · storm shelter · 6 continuity checks · 2026-09-21 · The red scarf is wet in scene 2 and dry in the next paragraph. These values are illustrative so the first card has something concrete to show; replace them with your own source.

What breaks first

Empty or vague input

If there is no subject or note, the app leaves the card in an empty state and tells you what to add. It does not invent a result.

A number that does not fit

Negative, fractional, or oversized counts stay in the fields and produce an actionable input message. Check the unit before you rely on the number.

Outside facts

The local card organizes what you entered; it does not confirm a deadline, rate, rule, diagnosis, or booking. Keep the source beside the result.

Try the free filmstrip

The companion opens with the same sample shape, three starter records, a reset state, a copyable result, and a state link. Nothing is sent to a server.
