About

We founded Scribe Hive Publishing in 2023 as a solution. We were all newbie authors, all working feverishly on our manuscripts, all navigating the intracasies of publishing. We were all wondering what came next. Querying agents? Hiring editors? How many kinds of editors? How long would it take to find an agent? How long would it take for the agent to get a deal? Some were discouraged. And wary of the predatory practices in publishing. There were so many companies out there who were ecstatic to charge thousands of dollars for minimal return. These are all things that create inspiration and that is our story. We decided to create a publishing cooperative that puts authors first. Our authors keep 100% of their rights and royalties. Indie authors with the power of a brand. We are absolutely commited to our authors, and to changing the model. 

Mission Statement:

To provide a safe, helpful, supportive and affordable alternative to the high-priced and sometimes predatory publishers and writing services out there in order to give authors the opportunity to thrive and to publish high quality and entertaining books to professional standards.

Core Values:

Integrity, Value, Support, Inspiration, Commitment, Positive Growth, Fun, Joy

• We met in a writing group and forged friendships that became alliance.

• We joined together to form this publishing cooperative and decided to call it Scribe Hive. 

• Why “self-publish” when you can be part of a Hive?

• We are authors, women, and artists with busy lives and lots of determination. Together we are a publishing alliance that ensures our stories are told.
