TLDR: Tips and Tricks for storyboarding a novel? For someone who can't draw well enough to do the "Draw and describe method"

* * *

Hello, having read the "[Storyboard a Novel?](https://writing.stackexchange.com/questions/10938/storyboard-a-novel)" as well as some sources online and numerous failed attempts to write a cohesive novel (I have a great idea too long for a short story). I have decided to ask for help!

A lot of the methods I have read about require basic drawing skills - skills which I lack, I can hardly draw a stick man let alone two in the same space. Are there tools or apps or "old-school" approaches that would work for someone like myself. I know where I want my story to go, I just don't know how to get it on paper?

Also, this is my first question on this page. Please feel free to let me know a) if this is off topic or b) you require more information or details to help me out.
