Particularly Interested In

Love the drama, comedy, action/adventure, romance, and true story/folklore adaptation spaces, but very open!

With horror, I do enjoy smart horror or horror light that's more of a slow burn where people are the real monsters, or we have empathy for the ghost/creature monster by the end. With sci-fi, definitely prefer when it's relatively grounded and emotionally driven from the start!

Some favorite TV shows: NEW GIRL, GILMORE GIRLS, SONS OF ANARCHY, LUCIFER, THE LAST KINGDOM, VIKINGS, CASTLE, TED LASSO, SHRINKING, TRYING, OUTLANDER, MINX, HEARTSTOPPER, PEACEMAKER, LOVE SICK, THE DIPLOMAT, NORMAL PEOPLE, THE BEAR, BILLIONS, KILLING EVE, UPLOAD, THE GOOD PLACE, SENSE8, JESSICA JONES, SEX EDUCATION

Some favorite movies: RENFIELD, TOP GUN: MAVERICK, CRAZY STUPID LOVE, SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE, DIVERGENT, SING STREET, PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER, EVERYBODY WANTS SOME, VENGEANCE, GUARDIANS OF THE GALEXY #1, BEAUTIFUL BOY, GIFTED, THE WAY WAY BACK, LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, SEABISCUIT, UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN, PS I LOVE YOU, THE GRINCH w/ Jim Carrey, BULLET TRAIN, SNOWPIERCER, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON, LOGAN, BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN #1, SPY, KINGSMAN, CASANOVA, WE BAUGHT A ZOO, THE TO DO LIST, COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO (2002), HER, THE NICE GUYS, MAN UP (2015)

I feel the least equipped to help with faith-based, Hallmark, Lifetime, spoof, satire, jump-scare and torture horror stories.

More about Terra Joy

Terra Joy started her career in Washington, DC as a journalist where she then transitioned into nonprofit advocacy and managed a documentary film campaign, resulting in 115+ screenings in under nine months. She was also very active in the local screenwriting community as a member of WIF. Before joining the RoadCrew, she was a reader for Slamdance. She has read  over a thousand scripts, and has seen the trends in feedback from execs on over 5K screenplays. Terra is also a professional proofreader and line editor.  As a craft nerd, a writer herself, and a Virgo with OCD, she loves to use her detail obsession to benefit story development. She's been to 35+ countries, has a B.A. in Political Science, and when she's not connecting awesome creative people with other awesome creative people, she's writing, or thinking about writing, or analyzing astrological birth charts for her scripts' dream casting, and trying to find the best boba tea flavor.

How it Works

After registering, you will receive instructions on how to submit your material in your order confirmation email. Please be sure to select Career Coaching as your consultation type on your material submission form, so that you are able to submit all supplemental materials on the same form. Provide your script, writer bio, and one-pager of your loglines (to include Title, Format, Genre, and Comps with each logline). After submitting your material, please allow 3-4 weeks to receive proposed times for scheduling your call with the exec.

**Please note screenplays are limited to 120 pages maximum. Please contact terra@roadmapwriters.com for pricing on a consultation for a screenplay exceeding 120 pages.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with Roadmap's Code of Conduct.

Questions? Email terra@roadmapwriters.com

MARKETING BONUS! If you receive a rating of Excellent or Virtually Flawless in at least four out of five categories (Logline and Formatting/Ease of Reading are excluded) on your consultation feedback report, we'll do one round of personalized marketing to execs (up to 5) for this screenplay for free!

Cancellation Policy: You may cancel your registration for a refund or Roadmap gift card if you have not yet submitted your material for review. However, once your material has been received by Roadmap, your registration cannot be canceled. Having revised material or a desire to retroactively apply a discount or gift card code are not grounds for cancellation, refunds, or gift card credit. Once your material has been submitted, the only acceptable grounds for cancellation and a refund or gift card credit is an unforeseen, ongoing emergency on the part of either the writer or the exec resulting in more than 6 weeks without any scheduling update from the exec via direct contact or Roadmap, or a sudden change in the exec's ongoing availability. In the instance of an irreconcilable scheduling issue, the writer may still receive a written feedback report from the exec. In this case, the writer is not entitled to a refund or gift card credit as the exec has read the submitted material and provided written feedback in lieu of the call.  

The Roadmap Promise

Roadmap Writers prides itself on the quality of executives we bring to our programs and we work hard to get you the best feedback possible.

Our vetted executives are chosen by the legitimacy of the companies they work for and their ability to evaluate pitches and pages.

Only the executives you sign up for will be provided with your materials.
