After purchasing The Process, I was able to completely outline my first novel in a matter of weeks, all 25 chapters! The program includes a step-by-step guide to build up your story from a faint idea to a fully printed novel. The help team is understanding and polite.
I have at least a dozen novels I plan on writing for the next few years and I wouldn't be confident in even starting them unless I was equipped with Now Novel.

NowNovel’s review of my historical novel was thoughtful, detailed, and enormously helpful. I enthusiastically recommend the service. The assessment pointed to some strengths (thank you) and identified weaknesses, along with sensible, specific suggestions for addressing them. Writers get a lot of feedback, and sometimes, it can be overwhelming and dispiriting. But the NowNovel review motivated and inspired me. Now back to work.

Like so many others, I've wanted to write since I was a child, but aside from sarcastic holiday letters (and a marketing job), I've never been able to get started. I stumbled upon Now Novel, and started trying out the tools. In one week, I'd made more progress than ever before. I then signed up for the Kickstart your Novel 6-week course, and am wrapping that up now. I finished 3 chapters! Okay, that may not sound like a lot, but I also know my characters and roughly what will happen in EVERY scene of my book! Of course it is likely to change as I write, but I now know the main arc of my story and smaller conflicts throughout. I just signed up for the Coaching+ course to continue with the program. I am excited to continue working with Fiona. Often there are parts of my writing that don't feel quite right, but I can't figure out what to do about it. Fiona homes in on that immediately and has helped me improve my writing dramatically. But be warned--she will also help thicken your skin, preparing you for the harsh realities of becoming a writer. It can be brutal, but it is all helpful. I've just had to put my ego aside and be grateful for this opportunity. It's refreshing to know that you'll have a coach who will truly help you get better, rather than help protect your ego. I recommend it to anyone who wants to write a novel. Even if you just use the tools and don't sign up for any course or coaching, you have access to a community of other writers - a virtual writers' group - and you help each other. Also Jordan from Now Novel periodically reviews the work you submit to be read by others, and his comments are reliably very helpful too. If it's not obvious yet, I love Now Novel :) Have fun!

I'm super enjoying working with this tool. Having a well set-up place to come to and 'dump' (in a good way) the background layers of book outline labours (stored here and there in my files and PC) and then getting to see it move increasingly towards a well laid-out outline, is not only very satisfying, but it's FUN and enjoyable too. Just what I needed! Something FUN after many, many months of hard-slugging labor.
Also, the group critiquing aspect is absolutely SUPER. Easy to use, rewarding to participate in, and I can already see, after only critiquing one scene for one fellow member, how much I can learn and take-away from reading other's writings too.
I also know that once I'm into my actual content writing (still working on my tight, clean outline) I will super enjoy having a place to put out scene pieces or parts, and get the kind of quick but thoughtful feedback that all writers look for, yet sometimes find hard (or complicated) to access. Not here.
Simply wonderful!
ps - I would have given Now Novel a 5 star rating, if it had a bit more advanced options. Going to suggest one to the great guys behind this. Which reminds me -- Jordan and the team at NN are always available to answer your questions, or pop up and encourage you. They're GREAT with responsiveness to your questions too.
With there was 4.5 stars available to choose!

I submitted my manuscript for review at a point when I was receiving some conflicting feedback. My evaluation was detailed and thoughtful, offering comments on the plot, pacing, character development, and tone—exactly the kind of help I was looking for. My reviewer made specific suggestions about revising the plot that were extraordinarily helpful. To be honest, I was a little stuck before the review, but afterward, I was encouraged and motivated. The review helped me move forward.

I started using Now Novel to assist me with my story’s structure. The prompts were helpful in developing my characters, settings, and scenes.
The story outline was a valuable asset that guided me through my rough draft. The feedback from my personal writing coach took my writing to the next level. Her constructive feedback and guidance helped me finish my novella. A great and reasonable writing resource.

I have an idea for my novel and this website allows me to mine out the ideas and concepts, from my mind. It allows me to develop the book using the tools provided, in a systematic approach. The site itself does not do the writing but gives a strategy for the aspiring writer to develop their book.
It’s a generic approach, but more than anything else it works. The method provided takes the rock out of your mind and extracts the gold from it.
I am also finding it to be a fun experience, an entertaining one. I could write all day on it and not get bored.
On the site you start developing your idea and then you move through activates until you get to a world builder for your novel. The tools are contained within each section, fulfilling a generic but specific approach to writing fiction.
I am subscribing to the basic package which gives all the tools some tutorials on how exactly to write your book. The more expensive ones of which there are two include guidance and coaching at different levels. I have no experience of these services, but it may be of interest to more advanced professional writers.
So far this has been a great experience and worth the 130 euro I paid for the basic package.
