For writers who are committed to their craft and are ready to make writing more than just a hobby, Roadmap Writers offers our Author Program to help you achieve your career goals across the book business. We offer exclusive opportunities to workshop your query, pitch, and manuscript with a variety of agents, editors, and publishers, in both private and roundtable settings. The vast majority of our Success Stories come from writers in our Author Program, many of whom have gone on to sign with companies including The Metamorphosis Literary Agency, Gandolfo Helin & Fountain Literary Management, Trident Media Group, and more!
Roadmap Authors is for polished writers who pitch confidently and clearly, as authors in this program will be meeting with agents, publishers, and editors.
INCLUSIONS:
- 1x 30-MINUTE MARKETING CALL with Roadmap's CEO, Joey Tuccio. During this call, Roadmap and the author will discuss what companies could be right for their manuscript, what their goals are and actually coming up with a plan to position their manuscript in the marketplace.
- TARGETED MARKETING EMAILS: You submit 50+ target companies and Joey will email a selection of execs on your behalf that Roadmap has relationships with.
- 1x Pitch with an exec interested in book-to-film projects.
Working with Roadmap has been a real pleasure and a treasure trove of good writing. I attend many writers' conferences and workshops and have gotten lots of pitches. I find that the authors who have been vetted and referred to me by Roadmap are very talented, much more than at other venues. I have signed one author who I met through Roadmap and submitted her work to publishers. But there have been many more who have the talent that I am looking for but rarely find. I hope to be doing more work with Roadmap in the future.

After registering, your confirmation email will include a link for you to access your syllabus for the program, which will include any prep work & resources, class dates & times, join links, assignments, and other instructions.
All interactive sessions are conducted face-to-face via video conferencing software Zoom. While the ability to call in by phone does exist, we strongly recommend taking full advantage of the face-to-face nature of these programs, so you should plan to attend your sessions in front of a computer or stationary tablet at a desk or table in a well-lit room. All Zoom sessions are recorded and distributed to the participating writers so everyone can be fully present in the session and still have a record to review for notes if needed.
Please ensure you are familiar with our Code of Conduct.
