Start writing a novel today with MyNovel!

So you want to write a novel or your life story, or the life-story of somebody you
know or used to know? You have your favourite Word Processor up, or your typewriter
out, or your pen hovering just above a blank sheet of paper. You have a vague idea
about what you intend to write. Some vague idea about the main character. Just where
do you begin? It's just not that easy - is it? Well, with a bit of help, a few prompts
here and there, your task as a novel writer can be made considerably easier.
|
|
MyNovel will get you to think about and plan your characters, settings, and the
events that will form the skeleton of your novel. It will encourage you to plan
your novel and visualize your characters and develop a good deal of background detail
before you begin the process of writing. There will be no blank sheet of paper to
look at, no empty word processor document!
|
|
|
MyNovel contains a complete word processor, so you do not need to own another one.
Alternatively if you already have a favourite word processor, such as Microsoft
Word, it can be used in conjunction with it - as a planning tool, as a writing management
tool, as an aide memoire, and as a source of inspiration. It will avoid all those
notes you have tacked to your wall, strewn all over your desk and floor. It will
keep your imagination going, and your thoughts and visions consistent for long enough
for you to get your novel written.
|
|
Particularly for new writers, MyNovel includes 'templates' - i.e. formulas - for
you to follow to get your novel written. For example there is the
Hero's Journey
template, which you will recognize as the basis for very many of the books you read
and the films you watch.
|
|
MyNovel has a thoroughly modern user-interface which is similar to Microsoft Office
2007. MyNovel was first released in 2007 and is continually, actively developed.
You are able to download new versions when they are released - at no cost. Your
input into features you would like to see in new versions are always welcome.
|
|
|
|
MyNovel also includes a diagramming tool where you can plan your novel visually
- diagramming the relationships between people, places, and objects; and diagramming
the chronology of events and situations that will build the skeleton of your story.
You can build family trees, love triangles, parallel plot developments and so on.
Registered users can also use the MyNovel website to generate ideas for their novels.
Need a new character or setting? The MyNovel website will give you numerous ideas.
