How to Write a Novel: The secrets of a full-time author
About this ebook
• You've started writing several novels, but you never finish them.
• You've written a novel or two, but you want to increase your output and publish more often.
If you answered yes to any of the above, this book might just be what you're looking for!
I'm Simon Haynes, and I've been writing and publishing novels and short fiction for almost twenty years. This guide contains everything I've learned about writing a novel, both as an indie and as a trade-published author.
Maybe you want to write a novel which has been on your mind for years. You don't care how long it takes, you just want to see it through to the end.
Or maybe you see yourself as a career novelist - there's a real challenge - and you want to write books quickly and efficiently.
I've done both, and I cover both approaches in How to Write a Novel.

About the author
Simon Haynes lives in Western Australia, where he divides his time between herding deadly spiders, dodging drop bears, and making up wildly inaccurate sentences like this one.
By day he's an author. By night he's also an author.
He loves wry, dry humour, and his hobbies include daringly inserting the letter U into words where -- in some parts of the world at least -- this simply isn't the done thing.
As for his genre-spanning novels, they include epic fantasy (with robots), scifi comedy (also with robots), middle grade humour (featuring robots AND the wanton use of the letter U), as well as a series of historical mystery novels set in 1870's London. (No, of course there aren't robots in those. He's not completely out of his mind.)
When he's not writing Simon is usually renovating his house, sim-racing online, using twitter (@spacejock), gardening, tweaking his book covers, pondering the meaning of the universe and reading, and if you think it's easy doing all that at the same time you should see what he can do with a mug of coffee, a banana and a large bag of salt.
When he's not making outlandish claims he likes to count how many novels he's written, and how many genres he's written them in. (Lots and too many.)
