Only The Novelry offers the step-by-step creative writing pathway with personal coaching and guidance from bestselling author mentors and publishing editors from The Big Five publishing houses to keep you motivated and on-track towards becoming a published author.

Don’t miss your chance to finally hold that book in your hands.
Wherever you are in your writing journey, we’ve got the creative writing course plan for you. Our carefully designed plans guide writers through the writing journey. We offer a 3-stage writing course program which follows the creative writing path of published authors. Our most popular plan is – The Finished Novel – for the entire 3-stage program culminating in a full manuscript read with The Ultimate Manuscript Assessment, a report from our publishing editor team to prepare you for our bespoke submission service to literary agencies to enter the publishing process.
