![]() You won't have to spend any time finding clients, negotiating your pay, arguing over scope of work, getting them to actually send the check, endless "one more change" revisions, etc-none of it. You'll be interviewing, writing, and editing. The best part is that you only spend time on the things you like. You'll work with and learn from world-class experts, build intimate relationships, and help them record their wisdom into important books that are incredibly valuable to other people. It's a dream freelance gig for high-level and experienced editors and writers. This is what we try to create with the Scribe role. It might sound too good to be true, but it's not. What if you had an essentially unlimited number of really great authors and interesting books you could pick from, didn't have to worry about any of the "admin work," and could only focus on writing-and you got the support and resources of an entire company to help you create the best possible book?Īnd perhaps most important: what if you got that all while still making good money? Well, what if you didn't have these problems? Does it ever feel like people look at you as less than human, just because you're a freelancer? They make constant and often irrational demands that require you to give everything, and then treat you like you're disposable. None of this even mentions the treatment. It's a cycle of famine-feast-famine, right? When was the last time you had a consistent flow of work you could plan around? What about the admin work? Does it seem like all your time is spent on the tedious "business" of freelancing instead of the writing and editing you enjoy?Īnd the inconsistency. You probably started freelance writing and editing because you enjoyed helping people turn their ideas into impactful words-but how much time do you spend doing that? Doesn't it seem like you hardly ever work with people you like on books that you're interested in, because you're busy with the crappy gigs that pay the bills? ![]() ![]() We think our process is pretty cool, our Authors like it a lot, and the Scribes who work with us do tend to write faster and better because of it.īut, let's be honest: our process is not why you want to work with us.īecause we're offering a better way for most freelance writers and editors to work. This gives a pretty good high-level explanation of our process.) We've developed an interview-based book writing process that's different than most book writing processes. We call this role “Scribe,” but you could compare it to a "co-writer." IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU, WE'VE GOT YOUR PERFECT ROLE. DO YOU LOVE WRITING AND EDITING NONFICTION BOOKS?ĭO YOU REALLY ENJOY HELPING AWESOME PEOPLE CREATE THEIR BOOKS?ĪRE YOU TIRED OF THE NORMAL FREELANCER BULLSHIT, AND WANT SOMETHING MORE? ![]()
