Alumni Services
We help our former students get their novels over the finish line and submit to agents.
These services are exclusively available to the alumni of our selective-application courses, including our Writing Your Novel courses. We are passionate about supporting and guiding our student's next steps – from getting novels over the finish line to submitting to agents. Below is a list of services on offer and their current prices (subject to changes and updates).
