Jericho Writers Avaliações 

I had a technical issue with the site when I joined. It wasn't an easy fix by the sounds of it but the team was helpful, friendly and stayed with it until it was resolved. Very happy.

Lots of really helpful free content to download for writers, and I have only heard good things about the courses and festival.

I got two very useful replies to queries about membership. The staff understood the problem and replied quickly, as usual.

I am so impressed with and grateful for the submission assessment report I received from Kate Rizzo. Her feedback provided clear, actionable, step-by-step guidance. Thank you so much Jericho Writers. I cannot recommend this service highly enough.

I am a new writer and have found all the resources and videos that Jericho Writers offer so invaluable to help me navigate and understand how best to set myself up as a writer. I have also found all of the staff that I have interacted with so friendly and couldn’t do more to help me. I’m looking forward to the London Festival of Writing that they are running in a few weeks and meeting many of the team and other writers.

Jericho Writers web site is truly dreadful . Every time I try and log in I have to change my password.
It offers all sorts of courses but where are they. Where is "masterclass' does it exist?
I am about to give up on it all.

I've been a premium member for 6 months or so and I've found Jericho Writers invaluable. They offer first class 1-2-1 support and critique on many issues (aside from further paid courses). The staff are knowledgeable and they obviously care about their members. Premium membership is well worth the money. Wish I'd signed up sooner.

I joined when I started writing seriously to feel part of a community who understood my fears and aspirations. The premium membership meant I could take part in workshops which covered all aspects of the craft and also become a part of a community who were all on a similar journey. There are other Sevices and courses like mentoring and editing which helped me improve my skills. What I found really helpful was the advice the team gave and it was so easy to book a call where you could chat about any concerns. I used it when a publisher approached me and I was overwhelmed. I now have A two-book contract and my novel is due to come out this year. Being a member gave me a sense of comfort- like talking with a family member who cares.

I'm eternally grateful for all the excellent advice and encouragement I receive from Jericho Writers. I am a pensioner, so subscribing isn't possible at present. Nevertheless, a great deal of support is freely available to help me progress in my journey as an author. Thank you.

I’ve been a member of Jericho Writers for several years now. I've found Jericho Writers to be a real treasure trove of craft knowledge. The sheer breadth of material is impressive, and there’s a sense that you could keep returning to it at different stages of a manuscript and still find something useful each time.
The mentoring and feedback feel thoughtful and grounded in the work itself, with a clear focus on helping you understand structure, character, and narrative choices more deeply rather than offering generic advice. My mentor has made some incredibly sharp suggestions in terms of structure which has been a turning point in understanding what type of book I'm writing. It’s the kind of input that stays with you when you return to your crafting a chapter.
What stands out most is how much there is to engage with—articles, teaching, and guidance that sit alongside the writing process rather than replacing it. It feels like an ongoing resource you grow into.
Overall, it’s been a valuable and enriching experience so far, especially for anyone serious about developing their novel with structured, craft-led support.

Jericho is a modern but friendly company. The staff are extremely professional and efficient. They offer many courses and services and I'm extremely happy to have found them.

As a premium member I'm entitled for an annual Query Letter free review. Rachel replied within the expected time and provided an in-depth critique of my draft. She explained what an agent would expect, especially in relation to how the pitch should be addressed, and even supplied examples of what she meant. This was most helpful. I have now redrafted my letter and feel more confident to start the process of approaching agents.

I cannot rate Jericho Writers highly enough. Many, many years ago I took the Self Edit Course run by Debi Alper and Emma Darwin which took me deep into the editing process with light bulbs popping all over the place (and was also great fun!) This led to a new, full edit of the novel I was working on, which was picked up in a two book deal with a small press soon after, following months of rejections prior to the course.
Roll forward to November 2025, and now I'm searching for an agent to represent me and my latest novel. After many fms requests and encouraging words but crucially no one falling over themselves to sign me (!) I invested in a 1:1 with Imogen Pelham. I was blown away by the ground we covered in just fifteen minutes. Imogen gave small but hugely significant feedback on all aspects of my submission package, and it’s definitely better for the many tweaks I’ve made as a result.  I’ve also edited (again) the whole novel based on a simple question Imogen asked. As a result, I am excited about re-starting the submission process and can’t thank Imogen, and Jericho Writers, enough.

I've been receiving free mailings for a couple of years and found the contents sharp, fun and expert. You can delved deeper by downloading advice on key information about how to write a Synopsis or query letter, self -publishing and so on. There is no end. And all without even subscribing. I think of them as the industry standard. They instill confidence.

I have benefited from my membership in the past, but I'm finding that the basic membership has little value. It's becoming a sales base for various, increasingly expensive courses. An example is requiring a 99E course to take part in the Friday Feedback. Take a look at other internet options if your looking for good value.

It was to the point, and propulsive

Jericho writers has a ‘nice feel’ about it. It is not pushy or seemingly exploitative. It is an organisation I would happily approach without my guard up having put the scepticism back in its holster. Seems like a really good organisation .

Invaluable regular insights and tips - especially for tyro, wannabe published authors.

They have some good advice on getting into writing. I have followed their 'getting an agent' thing, that's not too bad either. However, the thing that has annoyed me to no end is when I risked £337 on review of agent submission. Before I embarked on this, I had this story read by two writers' groups, and a child (it's a story for children). I didn't expect a glowing response on the submission, but I was shocked to find that my submission was so bad, the agent couldn't even get through it. Initially, I blamed myself, I thought I was the worst writer ever. Until a friend pointed out that I paid the agent to read my whole submission. I then sat down and spent 6 hours proving that she had not read my submission because she did NOT know the story. She made comments that clearly showed she had NOT read it. I did NOT want to be in touch with this agent ever again. The reply I received was so pathetic, I could not bring myself to waste MORE time going back and forth with a bunch who ignored my main concern: The agent had not read my submission, though she was paid to read it! I should not have had to bring it up, let alone waste hours proving it, and then when I did, they completely ignore my concern. It was a complete and utter waste of money, time, energy, and don't even get me started on the heartbreak it caused me. I will not ever again join Jericho. I am giving them one star for the fact that they have some resources. Otherwise, my experience with them has been minus five stars.

Outstanding line editing

I commissioned Jericho for a line edit of my manuscript and was thrilled with the results. I worked with Mary Torjussen, whose expertise really shone through. She focused not just on errors, but on the rhythm and flow of my prose, elevating the narrative while preserving my voice. Receiving both tracked changes and a clean final copy made the process smooth and straightforward. I can’t recommend Mary highly enough.
