Reasonable price. - Good source of information for novel writing. I annotate and underline like crazy because every page has useful information. I love this source for my novel writing efforts. It's a good collection of practical and reliable information. Thanks to all these authors who were willing to share their good advice, good product. Review: Makes novel structure and revision as exciting as writing. - This is a great book because it presents many points of view on the mechanics of novel writing. I bought it in paperback originally and then on Kindle because I was going on a trip. (The only problem with Kindle is that it refuses to allow multi-window view, so doing an exercise on your tablet from the book requires a whole lot of switching windows between your editor and your Kindle. Best to have two devices handy. -- Come on desertcart, it can't be THAT hard.) My problem is that I enjoy generating new material, hate copy-editing but can do it, but have no idea how to re-mold all my material into a larger book and no patience for the task. After floundering for several years, I find this book, along with some others (also reviewed), makes the once-overwhelming task into an exciting creative one. I used to be terrified that every change I make might entail a different book; now I am excited by that possibility. I now have three possible opening scenes and a way to understand the implications of each one. I bought this along with The Making of a Story: A Norton Guide to Creative Writing (not yet available on Kindle) which is a good thoughtful alternative view on novel writing with some debunking of the standard advice. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #143,908 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #91 in Research Reference Books #166 in Academic & Scholarly Writing #213 in Authorship Reference | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 298 Reviews | ## Images ![The Complete Handbook of Novel Writing: Everything You Need to Know to Create & Sell Your Work - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-RiVIUHIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great source of practical information.

You could get overwhelmed if you try to do all at once. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/40912904-the-complete-handbook-of-novel-writing-everything-you-need-to](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/40912904-the-complete-handbook-of-novel-writing-everything-you-need-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
