Monthly Product Release Update

May 25, 2021

News

The good news is that we’re growing and our writers are enjoing writing with us. This is feedback we received through our Concierge – Service Desk:

“Just want to say that the Asengana writing platform is 1st class. I’ve tried many writing apps and software, but this one is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I think Asengana is brilliant and you are providing a fantastic service.”

When you decide to choose a book writing software, you don’t choose just a tool, you choose a business partner. And this business partner needs to provide you with three things:

Useful writing tools at a decent price. If you want to go from idea to a publishable ePub in one place, we’re your partner.
Excellent Customer Service – Our initial assumption that we will need to focus our time and effort in being very responsive to our writers’ questions proves to be correct.
The guarantee of a long-term partnership and of growth. We’re an independent business and we plan to be with you for a long time.

Updates

This month updates are built based on feedback from our writers and our backlog list.

1. Onboarding page

While every page has a personalized tutorial and Knowledge Base in Concierge – Service Desk is comprehensive, we didn’t answer new members’ questions they have at First-Time login.

We’ve created an Onboarding page which appears at login and contains step-by-step instructions for the entire writing platform.

2. Editor updates

We’ve included the option to add hyperlink into your text at Research Notes and other modules.

Also, we’re working towards creating a more comprehensive solution where you can also add images and other media, but we’re still testing and searching for an optimum one.

3. User interface improvements

Main menu was changed to have, next to the Onboarding page, a My Projects page that makes it easier to navigate to your projects.
Front-end design for in Project Menu was improved in order to increase the visibility between Level 1 and 2.
The tooltips overlay component was changed with a text placeholder, which makes easier to read for every new project.

This is it for May 2021. Remember to share the news of the platform with your writer friends and use our Concierge Service Desk for comments and feedback.

Happy writing!

Is writing a great book an act of magic or a triumph over chaos?

With Asengana, it's both. Welcome to a place where the enchantment of storytelling meets the mastery of organized creativity.

Boost Your Productivity, Ignite Your Creativity

Writing a book is a journey. It will engage your time, your mind, and, hopefully, your soul. Unless you’re fully committed to writing, you will be less successful in your endeavors.

Start a short story, novella, or novel. Do your research. Create your outline, synopsis, and manuscript structure. Write. Use a Kanban to manage your time and your progress. Create your eBook. Publish, market, and sell it. Start the next one.

Stay Organized and Monitor Your Progress

Having all your research organized and at your fingertips will make a world of difference. As a writer, you’re the master of your own discipline. Maintaining a steady pace can be challenging, but with the right tools, it becomes a fulfilling venture.

The word count is a simple and effective way to track progress. Use a Burndown Chart to track your daily progress and estimate the daily word count you need to reach your deadline.

Enhance Characters, Enrich Locations, and Craft Compelling Outlines

Creating well-rounded characters and employing a sensory map for your locations can significantly elevate your character development and scene settings, enriching your entire novel.
Gaining a clear understanding of your plot points and having the flexibility to adapt the structure of your manuscript as needed, fosters a sense of freedom within a structured framework.

Your Comprehensive Creative Writing Companion – From Concept to eBook

Streamline your workflow and amplify your writing output. Bring your ideas to life wherever inspiration strikes. Harness structured creativity fostered by productive grit, paving a clear path from brainstorming to drafting.

Minimize rewrites, reach your goals swiftly. When your narrative peaks and you’re ready to share, our ePub converter is a click away. Congratulations, you’re ready to publish!
