Yes there's lots of superlatives in the title of my review (what else would you expect from a writer talking about a writing course?) but this is proving to be one of the best experiences of my life. The Novelry has given me the structure, the expertise and the teasingly-tangible belief that I can make my book-writing dreams come true. Whatever happens, I will never be the same since undertaking this marvellous adventure.

The Novelry helped me write my first novel. Their lessons and tools are born from their own experiences, making them all the more valuable. The coaching and live workshops are always insightful and kind. The community feedback is rich and constructive. Most of all their sincerity and compassion come through every interaction. If you are serious about improving your craft, completing the work, and not writing completely alone, the Novelry is terrific.

The Classic Course is unlike any writing course I've ever done. The content is inspiring, and beautifully presented and encouraged me to deep dive into my passions and obsessions, to find the story I really want to write. I am off to do the 90 day course now, as part of the finished novel course, and I am beyond excited, but also feel like I'm in safe hands.

This is an absolutely incredible program (it's more than a program though, isn't it?) for authors who want to be published. It has everything from courses, to private tutor sessions, to workshops, to interviews with well known authors ... I could go on and on. The point being, you can use this program to find the way you learn best, and there will be a wealth of material available to you. The coaches are all helpful and enthusiastic, and the community is warm and uplifting. It was definitely an investment to sign up, but I'm so happy that I did.

The Write Your Novel In 90 Days course ensured I stayed on track and motivated and the daily sessions really did encourage thinking and support my writing. Louise Dean is with you all the way and she's a fun mentor, she's also extremely smart and an excellent teacher. My tutor sessions were the key to my completing my first draft and the one-to-one contact was invaluable. Thank you The Novelry.

I enrolled on the 'The Book in a Year' course in April 2022. By early December, I had written a first draft. The Novelry has changed me from a person who 'would love to write a book', to a person who is now happy to get up an hour early every morning and actually put words down. There are so many wonderful aspects to this course. The daily lessons are inspirational. Some of them feature Booker-listed author Louise Dean, the founder, speaking about her own writing process. That has been really helpful. All of the Author Tutors are successful published authors, and you can book a session with any of them. My sessions have been with Emylia Hall. She has been kind, wise, insightful and encouraging. You are guided to write the story you want to write in your own way. There is no requirement to share your work with others, or to read other people's work. You make your story as strong as possible. There is a supportive, community environment here. There are no guarantees in the world of writing, but I'm giving myself the best shot by doing this course. I feel that I am in safe hands at The Novelry.

I took the Advanced Course at a time when I was lacking in self-confidence and it's given me an enormous boost. I feel ready and able to tackle my next draft now, will all the new tools I've acquired in my belt, and I know I'll be going back over some of the sessions to reinforce them, as there was such a lot packed into the four weeks.

The Novelry is a unique and wonderful place where you can learn new writing techniques, receive support from bestselling published authors and connect with fellow writers. It’s a community which makes writing fun and dynamic, and I am very lucky to have found it.
