Creative Writing Courses
Courses, coaching and community with our combined plans.
Courses
Reach the end of your first draft or finish a publishing-ready novel. Our courses offer various combinations of The Novelry’s three-step writing journey, and provide ultimate value.
The Novel Kickstarter
Are you writing fiction for the first time? Maybe you’re moving from writing short stories, screenplays or poetry to the longer form of the novel and would like some structure and support.
Whether you want to improve your storytelling skills or begin the journey towards becoming a published author, The Novel Kickstarter can take you all the way from coming up with an idea to a first draft.
The course will encourage you to explore and play, to create with confidence, and to challenge yourself as you develop your fiction writing skills to high standards.
The Novel Development
Have you started but got stuck with writing your novel? Maybe you’ve got a few thousand words in or reached the midpoint and stalled. Or, you have written a first draft, but you’re worried your storyline is letting you down.
Take a brave new approach to writing a new draft with expert advice from our team of publishing professionals and get your story signed off before you start writing this time.
If you are ready to radically overhaul your storytelling structure and begin again, writing to reach publishing standards, The Novel Development Course can take you all the way to the last draft.
The Finished Novel
The Finished Novel Course is our comprehensive 3-stage program towards a completed fiction novel. Plus, the course culminates in an in-depth report on your manuscript from our editorial team, all of whom have experience at Big Five publishing houses to help you enter the publishing process.
From the initial idea through to a finished draft, you will enjoy a structured pathway with self-paced online learning and dedicated personal coaching from our team of bestselling authors and experienced publishing editors.
The online alternative to a Creative Writing MFA or MA with the practical career outcome: a novel finished to publishing standard.
