Benefits: How can newnovelist help me?
Newnovelist Software is easy to install and easy to use.

This novel writing software is simple to install and extremely easy to learn. You will need very little knowledge of computers – you just have to point, click and type.

It takes less than 5 minutes to install newnovelist and get started with your writing. You'll be able to use it immediately and follow a fast learning curve. This means it will not suck you into hours of set up and days of figuring out the manual, so you will very soon be doing exactly what you want to do – writing a book.
And now with Newnovelist 2.0 being available...

...things are even easier. Over the past 4 years newnovelist software has been used by thousands of budding and successful novelists. Following feedback from our customers on this first version, we decided to upgrade the software and create Newnovelist 2.0 - which includes additional functions such as advanced editor, spell check, thesaurus, the ability to print directly from the application and many more, whilst still retaining all the things that were loved about Newnovelist - the clear layout, simple structure and ability to develop deep characters and vivid background elements.

You don't need to be a writer to use Newnovelist

You need no previous writing experience - you can simply write down your thoughts, without having to worry about how they should be properly constructed.

As a result, you can spend more time on the creative writing and less time working out what to do next.
Write the way you think..

Newnovelist enables you to move backwards and forwards through the process and storyline at will.

You don’t have to start at the beginning and keep going until you reach the end, so you can develop characters as they occur to you and build rich scenes whenever such detail comes to your mind.

You can even write the ending first if you like – and this means that you can write in the same way that you think, dancing from idea to idea, in an intuitive rather than formulaic manner.
No more rifling through cuttings and notes..

The software provides you with templates on which you stretch and form your characters and scenes. So you just have to have the image in your mind of who is in your story, and where the story takes place.

The software will coax the detail out of you and store it in a useable and accessible format, which means that you don't need to rifle through cuttings files and notebooks to find things that occurred to you three months ago.

You can use all of these “mental sketches” in your writing when you hit the right point in your story. So your story is likely to be much richer, as it will contain every idea that you develop, and is much more likely to be a piece of creative writing that will be published - or at least something to be proud of with your family and friends.

Newnovelist book writing software can really help organise the way you write. The tuition system

The core of the tuition employed by newnovelist is that used by the leading UK creative writing course at the University of East Anglia (which is the leading university for creative writing in the UK) - so you know that you can trust this product to provide you with credible advice.

This also means that you don't need to study the well analysed structure of literary theory, but can benefit from it immediately. As a consequence, your novel is likely to be that much richer, more readable and compelling – without losing any of the originality of your thought process.
Newnovelist will present your manuscript in a format that is ready to show your publisher.

Newnovelist automatically generates the final copy into a format that is expected by literary agents and publishers, so that when you have finished your manuscript, you will be able to overcome the first hurdle in gaining literary acceptance - structure.

You don't need to investigate the technical requirements laid down by the industry, you can just submit your manuscript with confidence that it will not be rejected up front, simply on the grounds of presentation.
Helps you start quickly, but enables you to write at your own pace

There is built in help at every single step of the way, which means that you will not have to read a manual before you start but can learn as you go along – reading where you need help, and moving forward quickly where you don’t. This means that you can go ahead at your own pace, with confidence that help is available should you need it.

You have the choice between downloading the software or having the CD delivered to your home. If you download you can start immediately. If you get the CD you can re-load it if anything goes wrong. In fact you can also choose both options, so you have the best of both world

This approach also means that you don't have to start with the introduction and keep on writing until you get to the end. You could start by developing a character or work on a plot turn. You could describe a particular event, or even write the ending and work backwards! You can dance around as the inspiration takes you - and the software collects all of your work into one single file, together with background, research notes for each section.

You start by creating a working title and a one-line summary of your story. You’re then asked to choose which category (plot-driven, character-driven or epic) and plot-type your story uses. All of this is explained in easy to understand help screens. You can also go back and change these later on in your writing, so you don’t need to agonise over it too much.

You now use the writing software to define the characters in the story. The Resources section gives you the ability to create new characters, define them as either a hero, antagonist or extra and to give them attributes which can help define the novel and establish the relationships between those concerned.

The Resources section also allows you to describe the places or settings of your novel and any objects or tools which may become relevant. Think of these like creating the sets in a movie. By filling in as much detail as you can, you’ll make it easier later on to create consistent, convincing scenes for your characters.

Next use the Chapter section to mould our guidelines into steps relevant to your novel - which you can follow during the writing process. These don't have to be long naratives, rather bulletpoint statements which you then add the detail to - as the author it is your job to know all this stuff before the story even starts.

All that’s left now is to actually write the thing! All the way through there are tutorials and help sections to steer you, reassure you and help you avoid the dreaded “writers block”!
