If you are looking to have your manuscript assessed by a professional editor, look no further.
Jericho Writers has a superb roster of experienced and highly skilled editors who will take your work to the next level, and the Jericho team are always fantastic to work with.
Highly recommended.

Jericho offer comprehensive and caring support for aspiring writers through their wide-ranging and engaging resources and staff who are ever ready to provide advice and encouragement. The recent courses on self-editing and creative non-fiction have shaped my current work for the better and Harry's weekly letters give apt insight into all aspects of writing and publishing.

Imogen is the greatest! She helped enable me to focus on the track I should take with my novel: initially, I was planning a narrative nonfiction work, but I shall save bits and pieces and use for an autobiography for later. Looking forward to taking the self-editing course in September AND MOST OF ALL signing on to be a member very shortly—of Jericho Writers!

I submitted my second novel to Jericho for a detailed manuscript assessment. The resulting report clarified a clear opportunity for me to centre the book as a political thriller. Of course I also got some challenging feedback on the work itself but has given me the impetus to reshape the novel and publish this year. Thanks Rufus and Jericho.
PS the ongoing support via membership is fantastic and well worth the cost.

I have been a member of Jericho for five years now and it is still the best writing membership I have.
The breadth of videos and mini series that are included in the subscription is vast and the team are always willing to talk if you have a specific issue.
Without Jericho it would not have been possible for me to find the confidence to self publish my debut romance novel Gone Fishing. Their self edit course run by Debi Alper is a wonderfully focused course for kick starting you into gear!
Thank you Jericho. You’re awesome.

I never planned to write a book, or join Jericho Writers, and now I've done both.
The book came first - well, the draft did. And then, browsing at all the wonderful free resources on Jericho, I realised I was at the very start of my writing journey.
However, Jericho has been a wonderful help to a writing ingenue like me - I started off light with free and highly informative webinars (thanks Becca and Harry). But I knew I needed to move on, and have progressed to Premium membership.
I'm delighted beyond words (of course, it has to be words), with everything available to me for a very small monthly/annual fee. I'm working my way through the self-paced video courses and currently am Self-Editing my novel with Debi Alper and going back to writing building blocks with Harry's 22 part Writing Foundations course.
The tutors, the source materials, the overall slickness and presentation is nothing short of wonderful. I'm one happy woman.
If you're serious about learning to write I'd say hesitate no more. Join Jericho today.

Excellent content, high quality, practical and actionable courses, and super helpful and responsive team.

A genuine community of writers, sound commercially-focused advice from people with serious experience in the business, and an all-round friendly and supportive atmosphere.
The world of writing (and especially, literary agents) can be intimidating at times, and Jericho is a place that made me feel 'yes, I can do this'. I wouldn't quite say I've 'done it' yet, but I have two novels completed and one short story published, and I don't think that would have happened without them.
Like others have said - I can't imagine writing without Jericho.

I've found Jericho Writers to be an invaluable resource throughout my writing journey. Their guidance on finishing novels and editing prose has been clear, practical, and encouraging—perfect for both early drafts and more advanced revisions.
One of the standout features for me has been the online critique club. It's an incredibly supportive space that’s helped me improve my craft through thoughtful feedback and a real sense of community.
The online resources are well-organized and clearly written/presented, and I’ve come away from every module with something tangible to apply to my work.
Whether you’re just starting a novel or polishing a final draft, I thoroughly recommend Jericho Writers.

In addition to the outstanding resources available to members, I decided to engage one of their trusted novelists/editors (Sarah Naughton) via the Manuscript Assessment offering. I can’t speak highly enough about the quality of feedback I received. Yes, it was nice to hear where things were working in the story, but it was PRICELESS to receive honest, thoughtful, insightful, and actionable feedback and critique where the novel was failing. I was able to channel that feedback directly into vast improvements to the story, and to my own abilities as a writer. This manuscript is out on submission and received a full ms request by a top agency based on the first 50 pages. My confidence in its market viability is the result of the care and energy put into it by the Jericho Writers team, and Sarah, who gave it to me straight with compassion, humor, and encouragement. Premium Membership and the Manuscript Assessment service have been wonderful

Jericho Writers Critique club is excellent. My work was critiqued in the last session and it was a massive boost. This sort of encouragement in the rejection-heavy world of publishing is so important for writers.I felt really encouraged by the feedback from the hosts as well as the invaluable suggestions for improvement.

I wasn't planning on writing a novel, it just sort of...happened. Now what? How can make the 5 months I spent writing it worthwhile? I tried Jericho Writers, originally just for their database of literary agents. What I found was a wonderful group of incredibly knowledgeable writers with wealth of courses, online events, and how-to information that I desperately needed. They welcomed me and are equipping me with the knowledge, tools, and techniques I need to be successful. Not bad for $20 a month! If you are serious about writing, whether you are aiming for traditional publishing or self-publishing, you owe it to yourself to check them out.
Thank you, Jericho Writers!

I have found Jericho Writers invaluable, over the last 3 years. There is so much advice and guidance through their courses. Feedback Friday is wonderful where writers just like you are there to support, help and advise.
The Writers Festivals are great too. As well as all the lectures, you may make friends for life.
Thanks to Harry, Becca, Sophie, Debi and Rachel’s help today.

I’ve found Jericho Writers useful for several years now. At first, I just used to use the excellent free articles and videos they posted, but becoming premium really helped, because of an excellent range of teaching materials that you have access to. The peer network and critique opportunities are invaluable too. And they are a really friendly bunch!

I look forward to Jericho Writers newsletters and the cheeky voice of Harry. I make a point of reading them unlike most of the many writing newsletters I’ve signed up to. I very much appreciate the themes, guidance and direction that has gone some way to improving my writing practice.

Reply from Jericho Writers
I had to continue after a year's membership because I honestly couldn't think of writing without JW. The Friday Feedback, the lessons, the community, the special events - all totally invaluble. There are published writers in the community, respected agents stop by for those special events - I got two full requests from a pitch event. The support is amazing.

I love Rosie Fiore’s post about imposter syndrome. I’m taking her words with me to my writing today. I’ll unleash my imagination on my next junior fiction chapter and I just know now that it will go well. Robyn - Auckland, New Zealand.

I have been a premium member since December and I’ve got to say I think it offers fantastic value for money. I’ve done several courses and the group chat feature is great. As I look to start sending to agents, I have just used the query letter feedback and I have taken part in an agent one to one (small extra charge) which has been incredibly helpful in making my submission pack the best it can possibly be.
