“Definitely bookmarking this!” “Super handy, thank you!” “bookmarked, thank you. Glossaries are just the tedious kind of task I don't want to contemplate. This is a service to the community!” “This is super cool! I fed it a short story and it found all the weird names and even some weird phrases that would be great to define for the reader in a glossary … And yes... it noted that I had misspelled a character name, dammit. I will definitely be bookmarking for future use!” “This is a really cool idea! I like to think that technology should make creativity easier, great example of it!” “Thanks” “…will be using it in the future. Thanks for the resource.” “OMG! Just ran two of my books (first and WIP) through your program and I had no idea I needed this! It helped my brain sort through data and now I may finally have a bat's chance in heck of assembling a wiki for my fictional universe! Thanks so much!!” “This will be so helpful. Thanks!” “This is interesting!” “Very awesome” “thanks for sharing”

Glossary building can be very laborious. The Glossary Generator is designed to help.

Why did I create the online Glossary Generator?
As a Sci-Fi author, I include glossaries in my books to remind and provide additional information to readers. It can be tough to know where to start. It can also be tough to know when to stop, since building a glossary is a subjective task. Sometimes, I identify additional terms I'd like to include late in the pre-publication process, or even post-publication. I developed this glossary creation software to help me with this.

What does Glossary Generator do?
The Glossary Generator is a helpful writing tool that identifies key terms your glossary may require. Please note, the Glossary Generator does not write the descriptions of the terms for you! You can build your own glossary and compare it to the Glossary Generator's output, or use the Glossary Generator as the starting point for your own. The Glossary Generator is not intended to replace your own efforts (although you may use it to do so), and I still advise you both sense-check the results, and check your manuscript yourself. All in all, glossary generator is an invaluable tool in constructing your own glossary. 

Please contact me for any queries and feedback.
If you have any issues using this online glossary maker software to create your own glossary, you can email me here. The same goes for feedback - your thoughts on future improvements for the online Glossary Generator are welcome. For example, you may have a personal style of formatting or writing that is incompatible with certain aspects of the Glossary Generator, or would greatly benefit from an additional option to be added.
