Australian College has confirmed continued delivery of its Novel Writing and Getting Published program through 2024, with year-round enrolments available to writers across Australia. The program, which covers both the craft of writing a novel and the practical process of approaching publishers and agents, remains one of a small number of structured programs in Australia that addresses the full journey from first draft to submission.

What the program covers

The online novel writing course in Australia takes students through the development of a novel manuscript from initial concept through to a submission-ready draft. This includes structure and narrative arc, character development and voice, pacing and scene construction, revision and self-editing, and the submission process itself, including how to approach literary agents and publishers and what a query letter and synopsis need to achieve.

Who the program is designed for

The novel writing course is suited to writers who have been working on a novel independently and want structured support to complete and improve it, as well as those who are at the beginning of their project and want a framework to guide their work from the start. It is also relevant for writers who have completed a draft but are uncertain about how to approach the publishing process.

Online, flexible delivery

The program is delivered entirely online with self-paced study, making it accessible for writers who are working or have other regular commitments. Enrolments are available throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does an online novel writing course teach you how to get published, or just how to write?

A: It depends on the program. Some novel writing courses focus almost entirely on the craft of writing, covering structure, character, voice, and revision without addressing publication. Others cover the full process including how the publishing industry works, what agents and publishers are looking for, how to write a query letter and synopsis, and how to approach the submission process. Australian College's novel writing program covers both: the development of the manuscript and the practical steps toward submission and publication. If getting published is part of your goal, it is worth checking whether a course covers the submission process before enrolling.
