There are a few apps that the CompletelyNovel Team really couldn’t be without. They are free, easy to use and guaranteed to make your life easier. And they are not just publishing related… if you are a writer, reader or just general human,you should definitely take a look.
Dropbox – recently featured on BBC Click,, this has been a CN favourite for a long time. It’s an online folder that syncs with your computers and means no more emailing yourself docs, or constantly carrying a USB drive.
LastPass – how many websites are you a member of now? How do you remember all your passwords (or not as the case may be)? Now you only need to remember one!
Word Reference – described by Vince at CompletelyNovel as “The most amazing website if you want to translate anything.” A very handy tool for those switching between English and European languages and wanting to get the translat...

Another week gone! Here’s a little round up of what the CN team has been up to.
As some of you may know, but others may be completely unaware, there are some fairly large changes coming to CompletelyNovel. We’ve been doing lots of assessment over the past months (and year in fact, since we launched CompletelyNovel to the public)in terms of how people use the site, what we can do to make the publishing process as easy as possible, and how we can help everyone get the most out of the community. We’ve also had lots of feedback from users on the site which has been very helpful in reminding us what the piorities are.
We’ll be giving you more details on the changes as a whole soon, but here are details on what we’ve been working on today, some exciting potato-related news and also a reminder of books published on CompletelyNovel recently that you should check out!

Just thought I would pen a few lines about the Society of Young Publishers Conference that is happening this coming weekend in Oxford.
It’s taking place at Oxford Brookes University on Saturday 14th November 2009.
I’m going to speaking at the seminar on Entrepreneurial Publishing along with Davy Nougarede, the Director of Heavy Entertainment Ltd and Young Publishing Entrepreneur of the Year 2009. Should be fun…hopefully I will see some of you there.

The 3 Day Novel Contest was a spectacular failure. The search for the agent? Not so much …

We have a limited number of exclusive review copies of Philippa Gregory’s new book The White Queen. It’s not out until 18th August but thanks to Simon & Schuster UK we have some copies to give out to CompletelyNovel members!
We’d like those who receive a copy of the book to read the book in advance and then contribute to live discussions when the book is launched.
Read on to find out how to enter.

I went out for a drink with some friends and made an interesting discovery. I ‘ve become a heavyweight book pusher. I didn’t see it coming but there I was, thrusting books into the hands of the unsuspecting at a social gathering. Are there any other unintentional book pushers out there…and is book pushing a bad thing? Read on for more.
