They have accepted my manuscript and I just signed a contract for my very first mystery novel. Woohoo! I couldn't have done it without Page Turner taking me through every step in plotting, storylining and keeping the action moving. Thank you, Barbara Kyle. This book now lives on the corner of my desk, within reach, as I begin plotting book 2. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Pure gold *by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2023* I paid a professional editor $1700 for my first draft and $2700 for the second. I could have paid $10 for this book and produced a much better piece of work. This book is jammed with precise tips and techniques, like a full course in creative writing by a pro. Oh how I wish I'd bought it before I started writing my novel. Every rookie mistake I made is listed in her book. I'm not on my 3rd draft, confident this time I'll have a real story. If you're serious about writing a commercially successful book, buy this one BEFORE you start. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely a "Page Turner" *by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2016* I ordered this new book yesterday, started reading it and got so enthralled I couldn’t put it down until I’d read through the entire thing by 2:00AM this morning. The book definitely lives up to its title.Seriously, this is a terrific, accessible manual that offers a wealth of wisdom and practical tips for emerging or first-time novelists like myself. The book is intelligently yet warmly written without sounding condescending, is beautifully organized and easy to follow. It’s thorough in addressing not only the “basics” but also some of the more subtle nuances (e.g., “deep genre”) of the writing craft, and it's well-rounded with many examples across different genres from both both male and female authors. The author's (Barbara Kyle's) vast experience as actor, author, and writing teacher/mentor really comes out in a unique way that adds immense credibility and vitality to her writing — (e.g., her insightful explanation of the differences and similarities between what a novel writer vs. a screen actor needs to convey to their respective audiences.)I especially liked the “organized template” that the book offers, not only for helping an author think through the novel conceptualization and initial drafting stages, but also for aiding and guiding the author’s follow-up discussion with a professional reviewer/mentor as well as steering the creation of subsequent drafts.One of the additional indirect benefits of “Page-Turner” (especially as I get into later drafts of my first historical novel) is that it reminds me to keep checking myself on my overall “societal” goals for writing a novel in the first place …- How do I want my readers' thinking to be changed as a result of reading my novel? (What Barbara refers to as the novel’s “deep genre” aspect)- Who am I primarily writing my novel for? (target audience: e.g., more scholarly military/religious history-lovers? Christian community vs. broader commercial fiction market?)- What “benefits” am I most eager for my novel to provide to my target audience? (entertainment? artistic/aesthetic pleasure? historical learning? Inspiration through important social or “faith” messages?)“Page-Turner’s” last section on marketing considerations also raised a vital question for me … do I really want to take my first novel through the traditional publisher agent-seeking route, or do I go self-pub and accept possible limitations/challenges on distribution? In any case, I’ll want my novel to be the best it can be so I’ll be at peace knowing I’m putting out the very best of which I’m capable from a craft standpoint. “Page-Turner” will no doubt help me in this process.I can safely say many of the concepts presented in this book are going to have a significant and positive impact on the next (hopefully, getting towards final!) draft of my first historical novel, and can't wait to get started. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41153853-page-turner-your-path-to-writing-a-novel-that-publishers](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41153853-page-turner-your-path-to-writing-a-novel-that-publishers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
