Katja Kaine from the Novel Factory is one of the novel finalist judges in the 2024 Page Turner Book Award.
Katja is the creator of the Novel Factory and is an award-winning writer. She has been shortlisted for the Bath Children’s Novel Award 2022, was one of 12 writers selected for the SCBWI Undiscovered Voices Anthology 2022 and came 2nd in the Write Mentor Novel-in-Progress Award 2021.
The Novel Factory is purpose built software for novelists, where Katja puts together over ten years of study of the craft of writing and shares her best practice tips and techniques for developing plots, characters and compelling prose, as well as providing fantastically useful tools for novelists such as a virtual cork board, subplot manager grid and much more.
The software includes dedicated sections for keeping track of your cast of characters and range of settings, with templates and questionnaires to get your creative juices flowing. It also contains the Roadmap – a step-by-step guide to writing a novel that takes you from initial concept to polished manuscript.
The Page Turner Awards have established themselves breathtakingly quickly as THE contest to be part of if you’re serious about being noticed by literary agents and other publishing professionals. I’m very proud to be invited to be a judge.
