OptionAvenue is a boutique literary agency and creative management firm representing independent authors, screenwriters, and writer-directors for film, television, and publishing opportunities. We offer full-service representation focused on book-to-screen adaptation, IP development, and industry pitching—with one clear goal: to help creators build sustainable, monetizable creative careers.
We don’t run a submission portal or passive listing platform. Instead, we provide real literary representation, tailored pitch strategies, and hands-on collaboration with each of our clients. We read every manuscript, develop cinematic pitch materials, and actively pitch to producers, studios, and publishers.
Independent Authors (fiction, nonfiction, YA, fantasy, sci-fi, thrillers, etc.)
Screenwriters with original scripts
Writer-directors with developed IP looking for adaptation support
Representation is selective and by application only. We work exclusively with paying clients under our Literary Agent Service, which includes personal outreach, pitch development, and strategic planning.
Kayla Jane Bramante – CEO & Literary Agent
Kayla has worked in creative management since 2017, when she founded Matchstick Management, a boutique agency in Los Feliz, Hollywood. There, she represented screenwriters and actors, successfully booking talent in film and TV. In 2024, she launched OptionAvenue to focus fully on representing original stories from indie authors for adaptation, development, and publishing. Kayla brings a rare cross-industry perspective and believes in long-term partnerships with creators who are serious about growing their work.
David Levine Bramante – Co-Founder & Creative Director
David is a third-generation Angeleno with deep roots in Los Angeles’ creative industries. He is also the CEO of CinemaMachina.com, a creative studio focused on producing AI-powered Spec Films—short-form cinematic trailers used to visually pitch books and scripts to producers. David works closely with Kayla and the OptionAvenue team to guide creative development, produce pitch materials, and lead visual campaigns for clients.
As of 2025, OptionAvenue represents a growing Client Roster of hand-selected authors whose stories are being actively pitched to industry professionals. You can view the current roster here:

We’ve read and reviewed over 1,000 submissions and have held dozens of direct conversations with producers and filmmakers. Our shift into literary representation was shaped by one clear insight: Hollywood wants curated, agented IP—and authors need advocates.
