Dear Deborah,
Although you have never used our services or taken a course with us, we are going to ask Trustpilot to leave this in place as we appreciate the opportunity to reply.
As authors at The Novelry, we understand your frustration, as expressed in your emails to us, about how hard it is for writers to get published.
We have received multiple emails from you too regarding your entry to the competition. We are asking you to please be patient, we are unable to let you know if you are shortlisted or a winner until after the submission period closes on 31 July 2025.
The entries for the prize in the first rounds are read by our team of published authors. For the next round, wonderful authors like the Women's Prize for Fiction winner Tayari Jones and Booker Prize winner Yann Martel will be reading your entry, should you make it to the shortlist.
You subscribed to our emails. You are able to unsubscribe from our emails at the click of a button. (We have unsubscribed you now, further to your emails to us.)
You don’t need to take one of our courses if you don’t want to. You can write a book without a course, and other courses are available. Everyone has their way of doing things. Our way is unique to us, as we offer coaching and personal mentoring from a team of well-known authors and former Big Five editors to guide people through the writing and revising of their novels and memoirs. You can find our published success stories on our website and see their books in bookstores and online.
As writers, we try to stand up for our community, and we are seeing an increasing level of unkindness toward authors on Goodreads, for example. As you might imagine, it is upsetting to our team to see reviews like this from people who haven't experienced the way we work and how much care each and every team member brings to the writers we work with.
You can see our team here: https://www.thenovelry.com/meet-the-team
We offer a huge amount of content from our authors and the publishing professionals we work with for free for all writers via our blog at www.thenovelry.com/blog.
Once again, we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to reply and hope you will find some space and peace to enjoy your writing.

小说就像一个温暖的拥抱
对于有抱负的小说家来说,小说就像一个温暖的拥抱。我带着写小说的想法开始了经典课程,但不知道如何写这个东西,在整个课程中,我被引导去戏弄、扭曲和发挥我的想法,直到它有立足之地。我接触到了一些我从来不知道存在的理论和框架!
The Novelry 的方法也有很多额外的价值——有无尽的研讨会、网络研讨会和作者讲座。能够接触到由其他经历相同过程的作家组成的社区真是太好了。
我很高兴现在开始学习 90 天小说课程,真正将这本小说变成现实!
