Booknova Avis 

I put in all my prompts. I have the story basically written - a great synopsis. I provided all the information, following their rules for filling things out. Then it proceeded to spill out the first chapter of a psychological thriller by revealing all the plot twists immediately. It also messed up all the family connections by adding last names that didn't make sense (like brothers not sharing the same last name, even though the program knew they were brothers). I feel like this could eventually be a great tool. But I spent more time trying to revise the first chapter, having it regenerate, offering fixes, and it was still all wrong. I had huge hopes for this site, but I'll be cancelling my subscription after only one chapter because it would have taken me less time to write it myself than it is taking to fix all the errors BookNova is creating.

I’ve had an excellent experience with BookNova’s customer support. After editing my manuscript outside the platform and uploading it again, I needed help updating the chapter outline and understanding how my changes would affect a future sequel.

Zigmars checked my book, explained the limitations honestly, and gave me clear instructions for updating the outline and carrying the revised story details into the next book.

I also encountered a PDF formatting bug that placed chapter numbers at the end of the preceding chapters. Within an hour of reporting it, Zigmars identified the cause, fixed the upload bug, and removed the stray lines from my manuscript while preserving my edited text.

The speed, personal attention, and willingness to take responsibility were outstanding. Everything I raised was addressed to my satisfaction. One of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had.

Thank you, Zigmars!

I’ve really enjoyed using BookNova and would happily recommend it to anyone who has ideas for a book but would like some help bringing those ideas together into a complete story.

One of the things I particularly like about BookNova is that it works with what you give it. You’re still very much involved in the creative process, with plenty of input and control over the direction of the story. It feels like a tool that helps you develop and organise your ideas rather than taking over and, importantly, the finished story still feels like your own.

I’ve also been very impressed with the support from Zigmars, the owner and founder. Whenever I’ve submitted a support ticket, he has been responsive and helpful. Recently, I suggested adding folders so that books in a series could be grouped together, and completed or inactive projects could be archived without having to delete them. My main reason was simply to keep the main workspace clean and organised.

Zigmars responded to the suggestion very quickly, and the folder feature was added soon afterwards. It has turned out to be a popular addition, which says a lot about how closely he listens to the people actually using the program.

BookNova is a terrific product, but excellent support and a developer who genuinely listens to his users make it even better.

Thank you, Zigmars. I really appreciate both the program and the work you continue to put into improving it.

I've been using BookNova to develop several fiction projects, and I've been genuinely impressed by both the program and the support behind it.

What I especially appreciate about BookNova is that it doesn't simply ask for a prompt and hand you a completed novel. It steps you through the process of developing the book—from the initial concept and Story Bible through planning and drafting the chapters. The Story Bible is easy to edit as characters and ideas develop, and the generated text itself is just as easy to change, rewrite, or redirect. That flexibility lets me stay actively involved in shaping the story rather than simply accepting whatever the AI generates.

I've also been extremely impressed by the level of support. Zigmars Berzins is the founder and sole developer (at this time), and when I've submitted detailed tickets about issues I've encountered, he hasn't just sent a canned response. He has looked into what happened, explained it, and in several cases made changes to the program based on that feedback.

That responsiveness extends to the BookNova Skool community as well. Zigmars regularly posts updates about what he's working on and personally answers questions—particularly those that require a deeper understanding of how the system works. There's a real sense that he's listening to the people who are actually using BookNova and continuing to improve it based on their experiences.

For me, BookNova has become a very useful way to take the stories and characters in my head and actually get them onto the page while still allowing me to be involved throughout the writing process. And knowing that the person developing the program is so accessible and receptive to feedback makes the experience even better.

Thank you so much to Mr Zigmars. I had a minor issue with part of the output from the programme, and it made such a nice change to actually get a real reply with guidance rather than a stock copy-and-paste from the Q and A section. Almost seems hypocritical considering we are using Ai!!!!! lol

I have been using this tool for a few months now and it has been absolutely amazing in helping me to publish my ideas into real books. I even have one of them live as an audio book now as well!

The tool is brilliant, but what stands out even more for me is the care and support from the Booknova team. I had a problem today with the PDF generation hyphenating and wrapping some lines. I raised a support ticket and within a few hours they had responded and actually updated the interface with a new toggleable option that addressed my preference and still maintained the old method for people who preferred that. Unbelievable attention and support.

Working on a couple more books right now and absolutely loving it!

This wonderful piece of genius has really helped me with my writing, the best part about it is that is it continually growing and evolving so new features regularly and the founder, Zigmars, is 100% available for users and acts on suggestions quickly to make the platform even better. The credits are generous and if needed you can top up for a reasonable price. I love that its not as subscription but a one off life time payment. I have to say I think I may be addicted to BookNova and it puts other writing AI to shame. If you're on the fence - just jump on in, I promise you won't be disappointed and the friendly bunch of users are really helpful if you have a question that's not covered in the tutorials.
