What to Expect
It's important for every writer to have a solid script AND to show executives that they are collaborative and professional to work with. Limited to only 5 writers, these 2-week Rewrite Clinics are designed to give writers an opportunity to develop a solid script and collaborate with an industry professional.
The executive will read your script and meet with you one-on-one for 25 minutes. You'll receive notes from your executive, get to know them, and let them get to know you!
Then you will have a week between sessions to revise your pages and in the second roundtable, you'll have another 25-minute meeting to talk about the submitted revisions.
Joining Sessions
Rewrite Clinics meet online via virtual classroom utilizing video conferencing software ZOOM.

Kersey Management is a boutique literary management company that nurtures unique storytelling voices in film and tv.
In 2023, client Brian Otting sold his action comedy spec script NEVER TOO OLD TO DIE to Amazon Studios with Sylvester Stallone attached to star and produce.
Another client Ryan Kirkpatrick sold an action spec to Thunder Road Pictures (JOHN WICK franchise) and the comedy VACATION FRIENDS 2 — the sequel to VACATION FRIENDS written by clients Tom and Tim Mullen which was Hulu’s biggest 3-day weekend opener for an original in the streamer’s history — premiered on Hulu.
The company’s incredibly talented clients have projects at all the major studios and streamers. In tv, his clients have sold projects to and written on series for ABC, Fox, NBC, CW, AMC’s ALLBLK, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon and WGN America to name a few.
In the “independent” film space, clients of Andrew’s literary management company have had projects distributed by IFC, Saban Films, Well Go USA Entertainment and Anchor Bay Films.
Andrew worked his way up through the industry, starting as a production company intern before landing at 3Arts Entertainment. He left 3Arts to gain experience in development at a Universal-based production company, before starting his own management company, Kersey Management.

In such a short time, Andrew provided incredibly important and insightful feedback and was at the same time generous, funny, and grounded. Thank you so much to him!
~ -Alex, Screenwriter
Andrew was very good at emphasizing the positive aspects of every script, whether or not he came down positively or negatively overall. He was very considerate and well spoken on how he conveyed criticism but it was always clear he was familiar with the material and was speaking from a wealth of knowledge in the industry.
~ Jeremy Palmer, Screenwriter
After only a short "first 15 consultation" with Andrew, I knew I wanted to work with him even more, so I booked a full hour consultation with him. I submitted a pilot script that I had completed several months ago, and was proud of getting to the end of it. But the more I sat with it, the more I felt like it needed something more, but I was just stuck on how to make it better and ultimately more marketable. Andrew's feedback was so incredibly useful, and helped me unlock parts of the story and characters that I had been trying to tell for a while, but didn't quite know how to get there. Even more specifically, Andrew helped me with fleshing out and making primary and secondary characters more three dimensional and true. I really appreciated our conversations and his approach of guiding me towards answers to questions vs. telling me answers right away. He is someone who I would 100% recommend working with, and someone that I hope to continue working with.
~ Sarah Jones, Screenwriter
Andrew's feedback was extremely useful. He pointed out the strengths as well as the weaknesses of the script. I have no doubt that the script will be vastly improved because of his feedback. I would highly recommend him.
~ Anne Jordan, Screenwriter
Andrew was very well prepared and very thorough! He was encouraging, yet very honest and frank in his feedback. I've worked very hard on this script over the years and yet Andrew helped me to see arguably the most important changes I needed to make. I am truly thankful that Roadmap Writers started these kinds of Career Writer's mentoring sessions. Wonderful!
~ Walter Tucker, Screenwriter
The class and the executive were great; they were helpful and reassured some concerns that I was dealing with. However, after making some bold changes (in my opinion) based on the notes from the second class, I worried about whether these changes would align with the feedback given. I was concerned that i might have misunderstood the executive's notes. Andrew was easy to communicate with and share ideas with, and it never felt like he was pitching or changing the story. He was quick to respond to emails, which I truly appreciated. Thank you!
