Novus: A Writer's Companion

📌

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Lamar - a software developer with a passion for crafting smooth, intuitive tools for engineers and creatives alike. As a hobbyist writer, I've always wanted a tool that could help me construct vast, fictional worlds where my stories could unfold. Frustrated by the limitations of existing tools—either too blank or too rigid—I was driven to create something better. That's how Novus was born. Novus was created with the simple notion that a story idea can unlock a universe that can span more than one book. With timelines and multiple projects with folder structures, you can effortlessly sort and rearrange complex story arcs and get a high-level perspective on your stories and each character's journey. Novus is more than just an app; it's a testament to my journey as a developer and writer. It's designed to be the ultimate companion for sci-fi and fantasy storytellers, enabling you to: - Effortlessly draft and edit with a comprehensive rich text editor. - Access a variety of document templates for characters, groups, locations, and more. - Develop timelines, world events, and story arcs with an intuitive plot document. - Seamlessly cross-reference characters and other documents within your narrative. - Engage with the 'Wizard' to be prompted about different aspects of your character. - Add images to documents to keep the inspiration flowing. I'm excited to announce that Novus is available today on the Apple Store! Join me on this adventure and discover how Novus can transform your storytelling process. For more information, visit novus.ink and feel free to reach out to me at hello@novus.ink or follow updates on social media. Thank you for your support, and let's embark on this journey together ! 🚀

@dynamicstutor Thanks Farayi. This is great feedback and would definitely be something I could look into. I’ve taken the liberty of adding it to the Roadmap for visibility.

Congratulations on the launch! :-) Looks like a very useful product. Is there a web version planned for Novus? Maybe this gives away my age, but I tend to write anything longer than an email on a laptop/desktop rather than on a mobile device.

@ic4ru5 Thank you Icarus. Haha that’s nothing to do with age! There is a plan to bring it to more devices. The first stop after this will be Android phones but desktop is most certainly on the roadmap

Thank you everyone for your support, upvotes and comments on launch day. I've been blown away by the response and messages. Novus has been a project that has been in the works, from concept, for many years and I am committed to making it a highly valuable tool for writers everywhere, empowering them to build vast detailed worlds for their stories to live in. This is definitely only the beginning. I have many plans for features but Novus is something I definitely want to build with the community. I have put together a community board where you can see the upcoming plans and track new features, bug fixes and releases here: https://trello.com/b/204WTPpx/no... If you want to stay updated with the progress of the app by email make sure to subscribe on the website www.novus.ink Thank you again everyone, I can't say how appreciative I am of your participation in this launch. I hope you find too that Novus empowers you to Build Worlds, Wherever You Go!
