Do you want to make
writing your novels easier?
The
Novel Handbook is a complete 168-page guide to help you plan your
novel, for experienced and beginner writers alike. Keep all your notes on
character, plot, setting and more in one handy place, allowing you to access everything
you need to know about your work-in-progress with ease.
Features include:
- Character biographies: Pages for
minor and major characters, complete with prompts so you can keep track of
their features and personality traits (no more wondering what colour your
hero’s mother’s eyes are, searching your Word document for the word
“blue”—simply look to the relevant page in the book, and off you go!).
- Timeline assistance: Avoid one of the most common author
mistakes and create a sound timeline with the calendars in this book,
designed to ensure you know where your characters are at all times.
- World building: A place for you to make notes on the
place where your novel is set, including prompts on featured rooms,
settings and more.
- Research: Notes you must collaborate before
starting your project.
- Loose ends: Avoid losing the flow of your writing
by making notes here on things you need to fix in your manuscript once the
first draft is complete.
- Goal setting: Project trackers and booking forms for
your manuscript’s dream team, including a pre-edit checklist—essential for
any writer.
And much, much more. The Novel Handbook is particularly useful
for series writing, so you can keep all your reference notes in one place.
Whether you’re an experienced writer or a beginner, someone who loves
plotting or a writer of the fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants variety, this is the
handbook for you.
