Romance Author Mentorship Program 


RAMP is here to help you achieve your writing goals no matter the publishing path you decide to pursue! RAMP connects experienced published author mentors with unpublished mentees. Mentors and mentees work closely together to revise the mentee's full manuscript over a sixteen (16) week period and discuss the business of writing.

The program is open only to RWA members with completed romance manuscripts and focuses on both traditional and indie publishing. RAMP culminates with two events for mentees:

  • RAMP Pitch Week - a week-long opportunity to virtual pitch the manuscript to featured agents and editors
  • Indie Author Weekend - free registration to the virtual 2-day mini conference featuring award winning and best-selling self-published authors, freelance experts, and more.

RAMP up your career with the Romance Author Mentorship Program!
