Sold Out - Waitlist AvailableWe launched Roadmap Writers 4 years ago to create a fully immersive, transparent online platform for emerging screenwriters. In just 4 years we have helped over 150 writers get signed to nearly every major agency and management company in the industry and helped dozens more to get their projects optioned, sold, and produced.
We are so proud of the major strides all of our writers are making and we are excited for more years of success!
To continue to bring our community the best possible training, we have asked Chris Deckard (Manager @ Fictional Entity) to host a four-week long lecture series designed to give you a crash course of what skills you'll need to succeed as a professional writer. We encourage all writers who are ready to make screenwriting a career to make a conscious effort to arm themselves with the knowledge and tools to navigate the murky business waters!
Here's to more amazing years to come!
