CompletelyNovel

CompletelyNovel is a privately funded start-up based in North London, UK. It was founded by Oliver Brooks as a way to link people who love books together in a more fun and efficient way. It’s grown into a company with three people working full time as well as a network of people from across the book publishing industry who are contributing and collaborating to make CompletelyNovel the central place for all things to do with books.

What Makes Us CompletelyNovel?

The philosophy behind CompletelyNovel.com is to provide a valuable service using an open approach. CompletelyNovel.com is all about enabling members of a community to feed into each other and share, communicate and collaborate to produce books that people want to read. CompletelyNovel is free for everyone to use. This means our community can be accessible to all and the more it grows, the more useful it will become to everyone who uses it.

We are independent from any other part of the publishing industry which means that we can work with everyone to further the interests of the whole CompletelyNovel community. The team believe that everyone in the book publishing industry can benefit from close collaboration and a streamlined workflow made possible by the latest web technology. The biggest winners will be the readers who will be able to benefit from a more diverse range of books and a bigger influence on the kind of books available to read. There are some great services out there, but too often there is no easy way for new writers or other service providers to access them in an easy and affordable way. CompletelyNovel hopes to change all that. We harnesses the power of new technology and an open approach to give everyone the tools they need to create the product the market wants, no matter how broad or niche it may be.

Jon spent the best part of his twenties in the world of corporate IT. When he found himself spending most of his spare time working on other web projects he decided to make that his day job... and hasn't looked back since! Jon joined the CompletelyNovel team in May '08. He is very happy as long as he has his Macbook, an internet connection and the chance to play with Unix, anything Open Source and the odd gadget.

When he heard the problems a writing friend was coming accross he set about doing something to make getting published simpler for all writers. CompletelyNovel has since moved on from a evening hobby to a full web platform for publishing. Oliver studied Engineering at Cambridge University and started CompletelyNovel shortly after leaving university.
