About the Page One Media 2027 Grant

Submission deadline: May 15, 2026

P1M is continuing our annual tradition of providing one fully supported pro bono publicity campaign to an underrepresented writer. The campaign will span eight months for a book publishing in 2027. The chosen author will be supported by the Page One team, which includes a lead publicist, strategy leadership from Sarah Russo, and research and administrative support from our assistant. The book will be included in all of our team-based pitching, media meetings, and annual outreach for holiday gift guides, book clubs, year-end best of lists, and in our social media when appropriate. The campaign will receive the same level of time, care, creativity, and dedication that all of our paid campaigns receive.
