Everyone has a story to tell. That story is likely quite boring, but you can throw in some sword fighting skeletons to jazz it up, if necessary. There has never been a story told that couldn’t benefit from sword fighting skeletons. And to help you get there, Mariner Software has announced StoryMill 4, the latest version of their novel writing software for Mac OS X.

Do you have a great idea for a movie, but don’t know how to turn it into a screenplay that makes any sense? Well, that’s never stopped those fellows who make the Saw movies, and now it doesn’t need to stop you, either, thanks to Mariner’s Contour screenplay structure software.

At Macworld Expo today, Mariner Software, announced the acquisition of ReceiptWallet, Mac OS X software that allows the user to scan, store and manage receipts and documents. The application will make its public debut under the Mariner brand in the near future, but will first be renamed.

Have you ever wished you could create your own cookbook using the same software you use to create your delicious cooking recipes? I have, and now I can. Mariner Software has released MacGourmet Deluxe 1.0. This application allows you to keep track of your recipes and wine collection in one convenient application. But what I really like is the fact that “create your own cookbook” feature.

I love cooking, so naturally I downloaded the software to my 17″ MacBook Pro. I’ve used many recipe applications in the past, and it’s similar to a few of them I have used. MacGourmet Deluxe allows you to whip up your own recipes, edit them, share them with your friends and family, and post them on the web. Free recipes are also included with this application. If you’re a meal planner, MacGourmet has you covered. Not only do you have the option of creating your own meal plans, you also are able to integrate them with iCal.

More features after the break.
