All writers should get coverage on their scripts at some point in the drafting/polishing their new script. Writers need to know what's working and what isn't, and they need to get at least one opinion from a professional reader. 

While readers are independent and do their best to be objective, that doesn't mean that there aren't trends over the years in what readers look for and comment on when they're giving coverage. 

Roadmap's very own Terra Joy is here to demystify the  whole coverage process. 

More about
Terra Joy

Roadmap Writers

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.
