Real writers. Real publishing success.
For more than 20 years, Jericho Writers has helped writers develop their craft, improve their manuscripts, find literary agents and take the next step towards publication.
Our success stories
We can currently verify more than 400 success stories from writers we’ve supported, from Big Five publishing deals and major literary prizes to independent presses, digital-first publishers and successful self-publishing. And we know there are many more.
A few of our success stories
From million-copy bestsellers and six-figure deals to prize-winning debuts and self-publishing success, our writers have taken many different routes to publication.
Every route to publication
There is no single route to writing success. Writers we’ve supported have gone on to publish with the world’s biggest publishing groups, respected independent presses and leading digital-first publishers, while others have built successful careers by publishing their own work.
Big 5 & major publishers
Our writers have secured deals with major publishers including Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Hachette, Pan Macmillan and Orion. Examples: Amanda Berriman; Philippa East; Hamish Morjaria; Aisha Hassan; Marvellous Michael Anson; Claire McGlasson.
Independent publishers
Success is not limited to the biggest publishing groups. Jericho writers have also been published by respected independent presses. Examples: Eleanor Anstruther; Liz Webb; Sam Horton; Fiona Erskine.
Digital-first publishers
Writers we’ve supported have secured multi-book deals with some of the strongest digital-first publishers in commercial fiction. Examples: Steffanie Edward; Helen Parusel; Ruby Speechley; S. J. King; Nicky Downes.
Self-publishing
For some writers, success means publishing independently and building readers on their own terms. Examples: Tim O’Rourke; Chris Cutler; Chris Lofts; Gillian Butler; Nitin Nanji.
How Jericho Writers helped
Our writers come to us at different stages. Some need help strengthening a manuscript. Some want structured teaching and feedback. Others are ready to meet agents, understand the industry or find a community that keeps them writing.
Real writers. Real results.
We’re proud to have supported thousands of writers on their publishing journeys. Read first-hand accounts from authors who have used Jericho Writers’ services, resources, and community to move closer to their goals.
400+ writers and counting
These are some of the 400+ writers whose success we can currently verify, and we know there are many more. They’ve gone on to secure literary agents and publishing deals, win competitions and awards, become bestsellers and successfully self-publish their work.
