What is Scribe Media?

Today it offers three tiers: Scribe Elite (full ghostwriting), Scribe Professional (professional writers) and Guided Author (coaching for people who write their own book).
Books are published through its imprints, including Lioncrest Publishing and Houndstooth Press, with add-ons for audiobooks and marketing.
