Published by Author House, the 155 page book recounts Novia’s experience shooting some of his popular movies including Real Love, Missing Angel, The Bridesmaid and a few others. His anecdotes about the likes of RMD, Stella Damasus, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, Genevieve Nnaji, Desmond Elliot and other actors he has worked with adds to the beauty of the book. He also writes about certain prevalent issues in the movie industry, ranging from sex to piracy.

An extract from the book written revealing his fight with Omotola Jolade-Ekeinde says, “I am very dangerous when I am cross, Omotola. By the time I am through with you, you will be shocked what will happen to you and your career.”

Novia, who runs November Productions said, “Since this is a ‘tell-it-like-it-is’ book and since I am generally known to be outspoken, I believe I have to reveal a bit of this, not in any way to disparage her person but to be candid in my opinion.”

He has produced over 10 movies including ‘The Covenant Church’ which was based on the life of a popular clergy man.
