Key features

Draft intake

Add a story title or issue reference to the Draft column so the editorial team can find it by name.

Editorial handoff

Move a story into Editing when work begins and mark it Scheduled after it is ready for the release queue.

Publication tracking

Mark a scheduled story Published. Stage counts show how many stories are still being edited or waiting for release.

Hands-on walkthrough

Try a complete workflow

  1. Editors need to distinguish pieces still being revised from stories ready for the publication queue. The board gives each stage its own column from first draft to release.

  2. Add a story using a title and issue reference.

  3. Move it to Editing, then Scheduled after editorial review.
