(Nashville, Tenn.) Cinematic storytellers and writers of story-centric nonfiction now have the option of a full-service management company with experience and relationships in both publishing and motion picture industries. By partnering with The Sam Hill Group, whose owner, Emmy Award-winning director Steve Feldman, has over three decades of experience in the motion-picture industry, Glass Road’s expansion into management uniquely serves creators of stories that work across the media spectrum.

“For years, the refrain from cinematic novelists has remained constant,” said Rebeca Seitz, President of Glass Road. “They want a management company that can take their stories into the motion picture industry, produce those stories into movies or television, and continue to grow their presence in the publishing industry. This alliance can do that– and more.”

That “more” involves packaging promotional services into agent representation for every management client. Glass Road management clients will be provided full publicity and marketing campaigns for each product, as well as ongoing branding campaigns for the time between product launches.

“We know that publicity and marketing budgets are tight these days,” Seitz said, “So we created a way to keep those services on the table while removing the need for the publishing house or author to fund them outright.”

In addition to development consideration for every project, The Sam Hill Group will enhance promotional services with author videos and book trailers. Some projects may then be produced in-house or shopped to alternate production houses.

“Our early work with Glass Road has revealed fantastic production opportunities,” said Feldman. “We’re excited to forge a formal partnership that allows us to bring a new perspective to movies and television in this country—bringing excellently-crafted stories to life on screen while maintaining the integrity of the worldview within them and the superiority of cinematic skill that should be applied to all Christian product.” [

Based in Nashville, TN, The Sam Hill Group develops and produces video and film content for a wide variety of audiences and platforms.

Glass Road Public Relations began as the only publicity firm in the country dedicated solely to representing novelists writing from a Christian worldview. Since its inception in 2005, GRPR has expanded to serve storytellers working across the media spectrum, from books to motion pictures and music. It has been honored to represent books and authors from every CBA publisher in the U.S., from best-sellers to debut novelists. By securing coverage in outlets like The Today Show, National Public Radio, USA Today, Southern Living, and thousands of local outlets, GRPR’s reputation for successfully raising awareness among the general population for stories written from a Christian worldview is proven. GRPR is also a pioneer in the use of social media, having been the first firm to create “blog tours” which it still conducts today. GRPR was founded by Rebeca Seitz, who cut her publicity teeth by launching the fiction division of Thomas Nelson Publishers in 2004. She is also a five-time published novelist whose research into the buying behavior of Christian fiction consumers has been published in trade journals and presented at the International Christian Retail Show.
