Without prejudice to your statutory rights, refunds are issued in accordance with the following policy (and, in the case of doubt or ambiguity, according to our judgement and sole discretion):
If a customer wishes to be refunded on a short tutored course (that is, any course less than 12 weeks in duration), they are entitled to a refund up to 14 days before the course starts, but note that an administration fee of £75 will be charged. After the 14-day cutoff, no refund is possible. To avoid loss, we strongly advise customers to ensure they are able to take the course on the dates advertised, and that they are comfortable undertaking this online. Should a customer wish to transfer their place to the next scheduled course, this is only possible if places remain, and a £75 administration fee will be charged. No changes will be possible once a course has started.
The £100 deposit can be applied to lump sum or monthly instalment payments. The £100 deposit is fully refundable if for any reason you are unable to take up your place (provided you haven’t completed the full payment, otherwise the normal refund terms apply).
To secure your place on the course, you will need to complete payment at least 30 days before the course starts. Please see the terms above relating to refunds for full course payments.
You may request a refund up to 7 days before the first scheduled session takes place. To request a refund, please email courses@jerichowriters.com. Once the 7 day window has transpired, no refund will be possible but we can offer a credit towards another one of our services.
When a customer applies for our mentoring service, they are under no obligation to proceed to payment.
You may request a refund up to 14 days before the first scheduled mentoring session takes place. The refund will be issued, minus a £75 transaction fee. To cancel an order, send your request to courses@jerichowriters.com. Once the 14 day window has transpired, no refund will be possible.
Once you have scheduled sessions with your mentor, these are considered set appointments. If you want to reschedule a session, you must give your mentor at least 24 hours advance notice. Any missed sessions or cancelled sessions with less than 24 hours advance notice will be forfeited.
In the highly unlikely event that you are unhappy with your mentor or the feedback you are receiving, please contact Jericho Writers directly and we will do our best to resolve the situation. Any requests to transfer to a different mentor will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and it will not be possible to get a refund for any hours already used.
If a customer wishes to be transfer the funds for any remaining mentoring hours to another service, such requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis and, in all cases, an administration fee of £75 will be charged.
To avoid loss, we strongly advise customers to ensure they are committed to the mentoring sessions and have sufficient time to dedicate to these.
We expect all out clients to behave in a professional manner, and we reserve the right to stop working with a client should they behave in an offensive manner to out staff. In this instance, no refund will be possible.

If a customer has purchased a Premium Member Course (i.e. the self-paced video courses listed here) with a one-off fee and wishes to be refunded, they are entitled to a refund up to 14 days after purchase and only if the customer has not yet taken the course. After the 14-day cutoff, or if the customer has watched part or all of the course, no refund is possible. To avoid loss, we strongly advise customers to ensure they are able to take the course within a year of purchase, and that they are comfortable undertaking this online.
All one-off purchases of Premium Member Courses grant access to the customer for 1 year from the date of purchase. Should you wish to take the course after this date, you will either need to re-purchase the course or join us as a Premium Member.
If you have purchased a Premium Member Course and wish to swap to Premium Membership, you may contact info@jerichowriters.com to request an upgrade. The cost of the Premium Member Course will be discounted from your first year of Premium Membership as long as (A) you have upgraded to an Annual Pay Upfront or Annual Pay Monthly membership and (B) the request has been made within 1 year of purchasing the Premium Member Course.

Editorial assessments can typically not be refunded at any point, because we will start work as soon as payment has been made. Should a refund be agreed, we reserve the right to retain a £50 admin fee. Clients need to be aware that editorial advice is just that – advice – and you may well disagree with some or all of the advice given. Our primary commitment here is that any editorial advice given is given in good faith by a suitably experienced and committed editor. Naturally, we can make no guarantee that the editorial suggestions offered will improve the manuscript and we certainly cannot promise that, if you follow our suggestions, your book will necessarily be of publishable quality. Other things to consider:
The term “editorial assessments” includes manuscript assessment, developmental editing, opening section assessments, agent submission pack reviews, or any other service with editorial feedback at its heart.
Coyediting assignments (including line-editing and proof-reading) are also non-refundable, as we start work immediately. While we do promise to use experienced copyeditors who will work diligently and in good faith on your manuscript, please note that one single round of copyediting is not likely to remove all errors from a manuscript. Books produced by large publishers will typically be professionally copyedited, and proofread, and checked through at least once and probably twice by both editor and author. Even so errors creep through. So while our copyediting is excellent, clients need to have a realistic view of what will be accomplished. Final responsibility for the manuscript, including outright errors as well as faults of style etc, remain always with the author. It is your duty to notify us of any specific instructions you would like the editor to follow.
Refunds for one-day events, evening masterclasses and the like, will be issued, subject to a £50 admin charge, up to 14 days before the event. After that time, no refunds can be issued as we will have confirmed numbers to the venue and may not be able to resell your ticket.
The following terms relate to our Agent One-to-One service, more details can be found here.
Your selected agent will:
While we have close connections with our participating agents, we take no responsibility for the feedback provided during your one-to-one session. They represent their own interests and that of their agency.
Customers need to be aware that advice is just that – advice – and you may disagree with some or all of the advice given.
Our primary commitment here is that any advice given is given in good faith by a suitably committed agent.
We can make no guarantee that the suggestions offered by one agent will necessarily lead to a publishing deal with another agent. Nor do we make any promises that your one-to-one session will lead directly to publication.
All feedback generated by the agent shall belong to the agent. However, the agent shall respect the customer’s entitlement to privacy.
All brand and other marketing materials (including written materials, designs, images, names and so forth) shall belong to us. Any material provided as part of our existing platform (e.g., Jericho Writers membership materials) shall remain the property of Jericho Writers.
All manuscripts and other material written by customers belong to them. Even if parts of that work have already been published (for example) as part of a peer-to-peer feedback on a platform provided by Jericho Writers, we shall have no claim over that work. Likewise, if a piece of student’s work embeds or otherwise makes use of an agent’s feedback commentary, the resultant piece of work shall belong to the student alone.
An agent may request to see a full manuscript from the customer, it is at the customer’s discretion if they choose to share the full work with the agent.
After purchasing their one-to-one product, the customer may book their session with an available agent at their discretion.
Jericho Writers cannot guarantee any preferred agents’ availability; however, we will ensure availability is regularly updated on the agent one-to-one booking system.
There is no time limit to when a purchased one-to-one session must be used. However, restrictions will be applied to refunds on unused sessions (see below for details).
Sessions are operated on a first-come-first-served basis; we do not keep a waiting list. All times listed on the booking page are given in 24-hour UK time (GMT/BST, UTC+0/+1).
If the customer would like to change agents, requests must be made two weeks in advance of their booked session by emailing 121@jerichowriters.com.
Agent One-to-One calls may be recorded for quality assurance and training purposes. Audio recordings will be handled by the responsible Jericho Writers officer and securely retained for up to 30 days, after which point they will be automatically deleted. They will not be shared or made accessible to members of the public. You can read more about the data we collect and how we handle it in our Privacy Policy.
Booked sessions can be refunded no later than two weeks before the agreed session date. After this time, a refund will not be available.
If requested by the customer, we will attempt to reschedule the session, however this is dependent on agent availability. If we are within the two-week period and we are not able to rearrange the session, a refund will not be processed.
In the event the agent or Jericho Writers is forced to cancel a session, we will attempt to reschedule the session at a time convenient to both the agent and the customer. If that is not possible, then we will provide the customer with an alternative agent session or a refund.
Refunds on unused sessions will be available within 30 days of purchase. After this time but within one year of purchase, the customer may request that the value of an unused session be converted to Jericho Writers store credit, which will be useable within one year of credit being issued. Other restrictions may apply to the use of store credit. No refunds or equivalent store credit will be available for unused sessions after one year of purchase. This refund policy will only apply to Agent One-to-One Sessions purchased from 5 June 2025 onwards; unused sessions purchased prior to this date will remain under the original terms of purchase.
All refund requests must be made by email and addressed to 121@jerichowriters.com
If the customer believes their Agent One-to-One session did not meet the requirements laid out in the Terms & Conditions (above) they have one week to file a complaint from the date of their session. Otherwise, we will assume that all sessions ran as scheduled and as expected. Complaints can be emailed to 121@jerichowriters.com.
Any complaints submitted after the one-week period will not be considered.
Each complaint will be investigated on a case-by-case basis. Jericho Writers may request information from all parties and reserve the right to share feedback/complaint information with individuals involved.
All decisions are final and are not subject to appeal.
Frequently Asked Questions and a guide to troubleshooting is available.
Alongside their booking confirmation email, customers will receive an author information pack with advice on how to prepare for their one-to-one session.
Refund information and other terms relating to the physical Festival of Writing are set out lower down this page.
Refund information and other terms relating to the Ultimate Novel Writing Course are set out lower down this page.
Please ensure you are able to attend before booking this event. Bookings are offered on a first come, first served basis.
Unpaid bookings may be treated as a cancellation. If we do not receive your payment within 2 working days of your booking, we will cancel your ticket and one-to-ones.
If you need to cancel your booking, please notify us immediately.
Refunds are made on the following basis:
We will always endeavor to treat emergency cancellations with consideration and will review individual cases.
The Pay In 4 and Pay In 2 payment plans are only available until 25 May 2025. If your final payment is not complete by 16:00 BST on 27 June 2025, your ticket will be deemed invalid and you will not be admitted to the festival. Refund Ts & Cs still apply:
Workshop Passes are last-minute tickets available that provide access to workshops and panels only. They do not include:
Due to the last minute nature of these tickets, some workshops may already be at full capacity. Please contact us to check availability prior to booking your ticket, as these tickets are non-refundable.
Please note that All Access Passes (full priced tickets) are non-transferable and non-refundable less than 12 weeks prior to the event. This includes requests to downgrade to a Workshop Pass. As the All Access Pass includes premium features such as one-to-one sessions, the gala dinner, and Friday Night Live, all of which have already been paid for, no partial refunds will be issued for unused portions of the ticket.
We cannot reimburse travel costs or other losses incurred in the event of cancellation by us or you. You are advised to take out travel insurance to cover potential loss arising from cancellation or any other eventuality affecting your booking, that includes coverage for Festival ticket costs and travel costs. You should ensure that any policy you take meets your needs
Our liability to you in all cases is limited to the Festival Ticket you have booked.
We reserve the right to make changes to the advertised programme and tutors. As we plan The Festival of Writing programme in advance, changes may occur to some courses, and occasionally book doctors, workshop leaders, agents and publishers are unavailable. We always endeavour to replace them with someone of similar expertise, but may not always succeed in so doing. Where one-to-one sessions are cancelled or changed, we will make best efforts to notify you promptly and make alternative arrangements.
Jericho Writers is committed to providing a supportive and welcoming environment that depends on tolerance and understanding of all participants.
We ask that delegates treat each other, agents, publishers, book doctors, workshop leaders, and Jericho Writers representatives with consideration and respect.
We reserve the right to refuse entry or exclude from The Festival of Writing any delegate who behaves in a disruptive, disrespectful manner, or engages in discriminatory or illegal conduct. No refund will be given if exclusion is made for these reasons. Our judgement on the matter will be final.
Please note that, with the exception of guide dogs, pets are not permitted anywhere at The Festival of Writing.
The Festival of Writing is only open to people aged 18 and over.
Please see our Privacy policy for details – but in essence, we’ll store and process your details as needed to manage your participation in the event. We will never sell or otherwise give away those details to a third-party.
Jericho Writers cannot accept responsibility for any loss, damage or expense sustained by delegates as a result of an event or circumstance whether arising from natural cause, human agency, or beyond its control otherwise.
If you have specific needs around access and participation, it is important that you advise Jericho Writers at the time of booking so that we can ensure adequate and appropriate help. If you require a carer to accompany you, please contact the office and we can discuss how we can help.
There is on-street parking available outside Leonardo Royal London Tower Bridge (parking meter charges apply). The nearest car park is the Minories car park located on 1 Shorter street, which has 401 car park spaces. Please telephone 020 7481 3153 for details of current parking charges, or visit http://en.parkopedia.co.uk/ for more parking locations.
By agreeing to the terms and conditions, you are agreeing to be photographed or filmed. Delegates will be asked to wear a red lanyard if they do not wish to appear in photos or film and we will make every effort possible to accommodate this. However, we cannot guarantee that anyone will not be featured. We reserve the right to film part of or all of any workshops and make these available to our website users, or to use for promotional purposes. Photographs may be taken for promotional purposes.
Jericho Writers are committed to providing a wonderful experience for all attendees of The Festival of Writing. After the event, we will give you the opportunity to provide feedback on an evaluation form/survey/questionnaire.
It is always lovely to hear what we did right, but if you feel that we did not meet your expectations we want to know that as well.
Often things can be resolved quickly and simply. So, do find one of the team during the event and let us know about your problem. We will want to help and sort it out. If you feel this is not sufficient, you may wish to make a formal complaint. Note that all complaints should be made in writing, within ten working days of the close of The Festival of Writing
All work for one-to-ones must be submitted in the requested format and by the deadline date. Once you have submitted your work, we are not able to accept further versions. Work received after the deadline may not be reviewed by your Agent or Book Doctor prior to the event. It is advisable to bring several copies of your work along with you.
If you miss your slot we will not be able to rearrange for you.
The timing of your one-to-one is strictly enforced. Please ensure you arrive in plenty of time. If you arrive late you will not be allowed to over-run.
All one-to-one sessions run concurrently with the programme, so it is perfectly acceptable to leave a workshop or seminar to attend your one-to-one session, and re-join the workshop later.
Do note that the agents and book doctors are providing advice: constructive feedback on your work to help you develop and refine it. But advice is simply that. You may or may not like or agree with those comments. Other agents or book doctors might or might not provide similar feedback and, in the end, it is your judgement about what comments to rely on as you revise your draft text. Please also note that Jericho Writers does not employ the agents or book doctors directly and, while we make great efforts to invite only those people who we think will contribute professionally and usefully to the event, we cannot make any guarantees as to the quality or professionalism of their services.
If you do feel downhearted or upset by anything, please do talk to a member of the team. Most of us are writers ourselves, and we’ll help any way we can.
We schedule webinars in good faith, but cannot guarantee that a given speaker will be able to attend. Where possible we will find suitable replacements, but in some cases we may be obliged to cancel altogether.
We reserve the right to remove you from the chat during our webinars if your behavior is detrimental to the event, abusive to our staff or speakers or causes offence.
We make great efforts to ensure that our events proceed without technical glitches or interruptions in communications, but we cannot guarantee this. Most communications problems lie at the user’s end; we recommend connecting your device directly to the router via ethernet cable, as this solves most problems.
We reserve the right not to upload a webinar for replay if the speaker withdraws consent, or for any other reason.
Speakers may refer to third-party resources or websites, but of course such references do not imply endorsement by Jericho Writers. All use of such resources is at the user’s risk and reliant, always, on the user’s own judgement of their own individual requirements.
We use webinar technology with an embedded chat function, but we cannot guarantee that this function will work, either in general or for you specifically. We are not able to answer your technical questions about the operation of this software (which ought to be intuitive and easy).
We cannot guarantee that any questions you may pose on the chat will be answered, or that your work will be chosen for live critique.
All statements made at our events are advisory only, and intended as general guidance. We do not know the details of your circumstances and accept no liability whatsoever in the event that such advice is not beneficial to you.

The following terms relate to the Novel Writing Course and the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme.
We endeavour to choose the most user-friendly platforms to deliver this course on. Please note that both Jericho Writers and tutors are not able to offer technical support, so please ensure you have a reasonable understanding of web-browsing and using online platforms before taking one of these courses.
We welcome students from anywhere in the world – and our client base is very international. This course is open internationally to writers from all over the world, and all online calls and live events will be scheduled according to UK time (GMT/BST).
Please note, that if your course membership grants access to in-person events, you will be responsible for subsidising any travel and accommodation needed to attend the event. If you are not able to attend the event, we will make our best efforts to add value remotely; for example, by arranging online literary agent one-to-ones or similar. We do not warrant that any such remote-learning tools/experiences will equate to the value of the live event itself. If your course offers access, or discounted access, to an event and the event is then not able to take place, we will do our best to provide an alternative in the form of another in-person or online event. We do not warrant that any alternatives provided will equal the value of the original event.
Please note, Jericho Writers has somewhat better connections with literary agents in the UK than in other English-speaking countries (though this is changing rapidly). The agents we mostly work with, however, are very international and are open to clients from anywhere in the world.
All students of the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme are entitled to a manuscript assessment of their novel (up to 100,000 words, worth £870/ $1155) at the end of the 12-month programme. However, students should be aware that it will not be possible to claim the manuscript assessment until all payments for the course have been received.
We welcome students from anywhere in the world – and our client base is very international. This course is open internationally for writers from all over the world, and all online calls and events will be scheduled according to New York Time (EST/ET).
Please note, that if your course membership grants access to in-person events, you will be responsible for subsidising any travel and accommodation needed to attend the event. If you are not able to attend the event, we will make our best efforts to add value remotely, for example, by arranging online literary agent one-to-ones or similar. We do not warrant that any such remote-learning tools/experiences will equate to the value of the live event itself. If your course offers access, or discounted access, to an event and the event is then not able to take place, we will do our best to provide an alternative in the form of another in-person or online event. We do not warrant that any alternatives provided will equal the value of the original event.
Please note, Jericho Writers has somewhat better connections with literary agents in the US than other English-speaking locations (though this is changing rapidly.) The agents we mostly work with, however, are very international and are open to clients from anywhere in the world.
All students of the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme are entitled to a manuscript assessment of their novel (up to 100,000 words, worth £870/ $1155) at the end of the 12-month programme. However, students should be aware that it will not be possible to claim the manuscript assessment until all payments for the course have been received.
The £100 deposit can be applied to lump sum or monthly instalment payments. The £100 deposit for the Novel Writing Course and the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme is fully refundable if for any reason you are unable to take up your place (provided you haven’t completed the full payment, otherwise the normal refund terms apply).
To secure your place on the course, you will need to complete payment at least 30 days before the course starts.
Please note, we may not be able to guarantee your preferred choice of tutor. The deposit can be refunded if you are not happy with the alternative tutor selected. For refunds regarding the full payment, please see below.
Before the course starts:
There is a 10% non-refundable deposit on the total cost of the course, when you sign up to the course. If you make payment for the course and are forced to cancel, we will seek to resell your place. If we are successful, you will receive a full refund, minus the 10% non-refundable deposit.
If we are reselling your place with very little notice, we may be obliged to offer discounts to secure update. This will impact the total refund you will receive once your place has been filled.
If we are not successful in reselling your place, you will not receive a refund.
Once the course starts:
If for any reason you decide to leave the course after it starts, you will still be liable for the full fees, both if you have elected to make payments via one lump sum or via an instalment plan. Our tutors and staff have committed a large part of their time to be part of the Novel Writing Course and/or the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme and your fees contribute to their livelihood. When joining the course, you are signing up to this commitment and so a refund will not be possible.
The course works best if you participate in the course and write your novel alongside the timetable allowed for the course material. That said, we understand that life can be unpredictable. All students will have lifetime access to course material. Webinars & tutorials will be recorded and available for replay. We will be happy to extend your access to all digital material for as long as you need. And your assigned tutor will be as flexible as possible if you are obliged to submit work late. In short, we will do what we reasonably can to accommodate life-hiccups.
Please note: Where possible, students must give their personal tutor at least 24 hours notice via email if they need to reschedule a one-to-one session. If students fail to do so, it may not be possible to claim back this session at a different time.
By signing up to the course, you are also agreeing to comply with the Novel Writing Course and the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme Code of Conduct:
Code of Conduct
As a student on the Ultimate Novel Writing Course:
As mentioned above, any breach in the Code of Conduct may result in being removed from the course permanently.
This course does not confer any type of academic qualification, nor will students study literary theory or English literature more generally. If students want those outcomes, we advise exploring Masters courses in Creative Writing or the Fine Arts.
Students should also expect to self-fund their course. We are not aware of government or charitable bodies that are likely to offer funding.
This course has been prepared by experienced editors/writers in conjunction with Jericho Writers, an internationally respected authority on the process of getting writers published or successfully self-published. For the sake of clarity:
In short, though this course is vocational in nature, we cannot guarantee that students will secure the outcomes they want, and that our advice, though experienced, will never be the final or only word on a given topic.
From time to time, a tutor or mentor may not be available to provide their services as scheduled. In those cases, a capable replacement will be made available, where possible. In the event a course session is cancelled, we will endeavour to provide an alternative session, but shall not be obliged to do so, and no part of this course shall be refundable.
We may also, from time to time, choose to alter the specific subject matter of what is being discussed. In general, the services and benefits of this course should be viewed as a whole, and our primary obligation is to deliver the course such that its overall objectives are effectively fulfilled.
We will endeavour to ensure students remain with their preferred personal tutor and in the same tutor group throughout the course. However, if the tutor group has five students or less, we reserve the right to combine tutor groups of equal number. This will mean that students will receive one workshop with their personal tutor each month, and the second workshop will be run by the tutor of the second group.
These Terms and Conditions apply to the 2025 Early Enrolment Offer:
Students of the Novel Writing Course have the option to upgrade to the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme at any time during their 8-month course. Students should contact the Jericho Writers Courses and Mentoring team to express their interest in upgrading. The team will then confirm in writing the steps to upgrade and the payment required.
Although we will endeavour to keep the personal tutor the same when students upgrade, we cannot guarantee it. However, we will keep the student’s preferred tutors in mind when assimilating them into the Ultimate Novel Writing Programme. If we are unable to keep students with their original personal tutor, we will ensure the student’s new tutor specialises in their genre and writing style so that the student’s experience remains consistent.
The following terms relate to the Ultimate Novel Writing Course offered here.
We endeavour to choose the most user-friendly platforms to deliver this course on. Please note that both Jericho Writers and tutors are not able to offer technical support, so please ensure you have a reasonable understanding of web-browsing and using online platforms before taking this course.

Please note, that if your course membership grants access to in-person events, you will be responsible for subsidising any travel and accommodation needed to attend the event. If you are not able to attend the event, we will make our best efforts to add value remotely; for example, by arranging online literary agent one-to-ones or similar. We do not warrant that any such remote-learning tools/experiences will equate to the value of the live event itself. If your course offers access, or discounted access, to the Festival of Writing and the festival is then not able to take place, we will do our best to provide an alternative in the form of another in-person or online event. We do not warrant that any alternative events provided will equal the value of the Festival of Writing.
Please note, Jericho Writers has somewhat better connections with literary agents in the UK than in other English-speaking countries (though this is changing rapidly). The agents we mostly work with, however, are very international and are open to clients from anywhere in the world.

These Terms and Conditions apply to the 2024 UNWC Earlybird promotion:
The following terms relate to the Agent One-to-One Bursary offered here.
By applying for this bursary you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. The bursary is being offered by Jericho Writers, with thanks to Hannah Schofield from LBA Books for her kind donations of Agent One-to-One Sessions for low-income authors.
All entries must:
Successful applicants will be awarded a free Agent One-to-One Session. The purpose of an Agent One-to-One Session is feedback from a literary professional on your query letter, synopsis and first 5000 words of your manuscript during a 15-minute phone call.
We will recommend a short list of agents based on genre, but successful applicants may select any available agent of their choice. Agent One-to-One Sessions do not expire so authors may choose to wait for a specific agent to become available – however, Jericho Writers cannot guarantee the availability of any agent not listed on the monthly schedule.
Agent One-to-One Sessions are non-transferable and non-exchangeable, and no cash alternatives will be provided.
Successful applicants will be contacted on Monday 28th August. Jericho Writers will make two attempts to contact successful applicants via email with information of how to claim their free session.
Jericho Writers’ decision on any aspect of the bursary is final and binding, and no correspondence will be entered into about it.
If a successful applicant does not respond to the emails informing them how to claim their free session within 14 days of the second email, they forfeit their right to the session, and Jericho Writers reserves the right to transfer the session to another author.
You agree that any personal information that you provide when entering the bursary will be used by Jericho Writers for the purposes of administering the bursary and for the other purposes as specified in our Privacy Policy.
All entrants may address questions about the bursary to 121@jerichowriters.com.
Jericho Writers accepts no liability for any damage, loss, injury, or disappointment suffered by any entrants as a result of participating in the bursary. Jericho Writers does not accept responsibility for any feedback given by an agent during an Agent One-to-One Session.
Jericho Writers reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to cancel the bursary or amend these terms and conditions.
The following terms relate to our Mentoring service, more details can be found here.
Your mentor will:
All teaching materials generated by the mentor shall belong to them. Teaching materials generated in dialogue with you shall belong to the mentor, and the mentor’s use of those materials shall respect your entitlement to privacy.
All manuscripts and other material written by you will belong to you alone. Even if parts of that work have already been published (for example) as part of a peer-to-peer feedback on a platform provided by Jericho Writers, we shall have no claim over that work. Likewise, if a piece of your work embeds or otherwise makes use of the mentoring commentary, the resultant piece of work shall belong to you alone.
Each mentoring purchase is subject to an expiry date, to ensure you use the hours within a timely manner to make the most of your mentoring.
Please see the limits assigned to each order below:
If, at the end of the allotted time, you fail to use all your purchased hours, the remaining hours will expire and be non-refundable.
Any extensions to these expiry dates will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and we will only grant these extensions with your mentor’s approval.
To request an extension, you should send a written request to both your mentor and Jericho Writers (courses@jerichowriters.com)
You may request a refund up to 14 days before the first scheduled mentoring session takes place. The refund will be issued, minus a £75 transaction fee. To cancel an order, send your request to courses@jerichowriters.com. Once the 14 day window has transpired, no refund will be possible.
Once you have scheduled sessions with your mentor, these are considered set appointments. If you want to reschedule a session, you must give your mentor at least 24 hours advance notice. Any missed sessions or cancelled sessions with less than 24 hours advance notice will be forfeited.
In the highly unlikely event that you are unhappy with your mentor or the feedback you are receiving, please contact Jericho Writers directly and we will do our best to resolve the situation. Any requests to transfer to a different mentor will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and it will not be possible to get a refund for any hours already used.
If a customer wishes to transfer the funds for any remaining mentoring hours to another service, such requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis and, in all cases, an administration fee of £75 will be charged.
To avoid loss, we strongly advise customers to ensure they are committed to the mentoring sessions and have sufficient time to dedicate to these.
We expect all our clients to behave in a professional manner, and we reserve the right to stop working with a client should they behave in an offensive manner to our staff and mentors. In this instance, no refund will be possible.
The following terms relate to the Mentoring Bursary offered here.
These Terms & Conditions are in addition to the Mentoring Terms and Conditions, available here.
INTRODUCTION
By applying for this bursary, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. The bursary is being offered by Jericho Writers, with thanks to a previous mentee for their generous donation of 4 hours of mentoring for an underrepresented writer, which Jericho Writers have topped up to 5 hours total.
ELIGIBILITY TO ENTER
This bursary is aimed at unagented and unpublished authors who meet one or more of the following criteria:
The deadline for entry is 11:59pm BST on Wednesday 31st July 2024. Late entries will not be considered.

MENTORING
The successful applicant will be awarded 5 hours of mentoring with the mentor Tom Witcomb. Mentoring is available on an online basis, where you can use your 5 hours in the way that works best for your project. This can be decided between you and your mentor.
5 hours of mentoring entitles you to 5 hours of your mentor’s time, so any time it takes to read and review your work will be deducted from your remaining balance.
Once awarded 5 hours of mentoring, these will expire after 12 months. It will be your responsibility to use your hours within the time period. If you would like to request an extension, this must be sent to both your mentor and Jericho Writers at mentoring@jerichowriters.com.
Mentoring is non-transferable and non-exchangeable, and no cash alternatives will be provided.
DECISIONS
Successful applicants will be contacted by Friday 30th August 2024. Jericho Writers will make two attempts to contact successful applicants by email via the email address mentoring@jerichowriters.com with information on next steps, inviting them to be put in touch with their mentor.
Jericho Writers’ decision on any aspect of the bursary is final and binding, and no correspondence will be entered into about it. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer feedback on unsuccessful applications.
