Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly does Scribe do?
Scribe helps people write, publish, and market their books. We were founded in 2014 by a 4x New York Times Bestselling Author, and have worked on over 2,000 books. Our two most popular services are Guided Author ($44k) and Scribe Professional ($56k). We can also publish your finished manuscript.
Does Scribe work with anyone?
No, we typically reject about 30% of authors who want to work with us. We use two criteria: Does the author know the subject matter deeply enough? And does the author have a clear understanding of how books work and reasonable expectations for ROI? That is why the first step in our process is a qualification process.
How do I decide between the $44k and $56k options?
Ask yourself two questions: Do you like sitting down and writing? And do you have enough time to write yourself? If yes to both, Guided Author ($44k) is probably right. If no to both, Scribe Professional ($56k) is probably right. Generally, Guided Author requires 1-2 hours a day for a year, and Scribe Professional requires 2 hours a week for 9 months.
What is Scribe Elite ($135k+)?
Scribe Elite Ghostwriting is intended for authors who require an authentic ghostwriting experience that often involves interviewing outside sources, conducting background research, and creating a bespoke process. Almost all authors are better off with Guided Author ($44k) or Scribe Professional ($56k).
Do you do fiction books?
No, we currently do not offer services for fiction books, children's books, cookbooks, or textbooks.
Can you work in other languages?
No, not right now.
Is there anyone who should not work with Scribe?
Yes. People who do not know their topic well, people who are not sure how a book can help them, and people who have no idea why they want to write a book. Our process requires an investment of both money and effort, so you should have an idea of why you are doing it.
