 From Story Editor you can save the text from individual text frames to 
files. If you are going to do this, it's probably a good idea to make 
use of styles, so you can reapply the styles if/when the file is loaded 
back in.
Also worth considering is to make the text content in a text editor in 
the first place, then working with Scribus and importing later. This 
also makes the spellchecking easier (outside of Scribus).
