Join our small cohort classes that will help you not only survive your debut launch but thrive during it.
Cohort #3 is tentatively scheduled to run from November 10th to December 8th on Tuesdays at 8 pm Eastern. This covers the week of Thanksgiving, so we may take that week off and end on December 15th.
The ideal writer has a debut book being traditionally published in 2027 or 2028 and needs a little extra guidance around book publicity and media for one reason or another, but all writers are welcome.
Classes will cover:
- Ensuring your website, social media, and pitch are up to par
- Building a media list that covers Big Media, the Literati, and outlets that don’t seem obvious
- Learning to connect with bookstores
- Shaping how to talk about your book in interviews and beyond
- Creating a 12-week plan leading up to publication so you don’t burn yourself out
- Plus, a 30-minute 1:1 class that covers whatever you personally need
Please fill out the form below and include links for your website, social media, and your book’s publication information (including a link to bookshop.org).
Testimonials
“Adam Vitcavage has been such an incredible guide to the business side of this industry.”

“Adam is uniquely positioned to advise on marketing and publicity as the creator of Debutiful, as a former bookseller and events director, and as a writer himself. When I ask for Adam’s advice about what is worth my time and effort, especially as a debut author, I know I am going to get an actionable response with no BS. His approach to publicity has helped keep me sane, and his input couldn’t be more valuable.”
