Find creative joy and creative confidence.

You sit down to write and your fingers fly across the keys. The rest of the world falls away and it’s just you and this magical, wondrous world you created.

Best of all, you KNOW your world is as good as you can make it because you've learned:

📖 How to tie together all the elements of a world, from its environment to its culture to create a cohesive setting.

📖 New sources of conflict for your stories and characters, so your book is more binge-worthy than you ever thought it could be.

📖 Methods to add realistic details to your world without endless research.

Readers will get lost in your world as they uncover all its secrets.

📖 You'll create fictional species so detailed they could be on the cover of NatGeo.

📖 Your magic system will inspire readers to act it out because they yearn for it to be real (like if you ever tried to move a cup with the Force).

📖 Your fictional cultures will be complex and believable with one simple trick no one else tells you about.

📖 Your natural environments will be so lush they'd make David Attenborough drool (does someone that fancy drool?).

📖 And more!

I’ll use this for the rest of my life

If you’re interested in writing any kind of fiction, you’ve got to get this guide. My imagination was fuelled, chapter after chapter. I bought the PDF, which is lovely, but I’ll probably buy the printed version as well!

Highly recommended!

I like how it makes you think and expand your creativity. No idea is ever a bad idea, but it can get better. It has also helped me to figure out how to describe my world in the story without writing an entire essay about it, but rather in a way that helps the reader not only visualize but feel like they are part of the world.

Great!

Informative and detailed. Had issues with the zip files, getting transferred straight to OneDrive, didn’t work, download them first to files, then to the OneDrive. Because of the issue I was afraid I’d lost all privileges of getting them to work, fortunately Eva had as able to help me. She was quick and courteous though out our conversation.

Wondering resource!

I was looking for something that would help me narrow down my ideas, to make my story more concrete. This workbook is exactly what I needed! The sections are full of information to help guide the author through the process of creating a real world. The workbook portion is filled with questions to stimulate thoughtful answers. It's absolutely wonderful. I would have been so lost without this valuable resource!

Great! Highly recommended

The only reason I'm not giving this five stars is because I haven't gotten as deep into it as I'd like to. I've just skimmed a little bit in the different chapters and already I think it's amazing and I feel there's so much potential for creation here and I'm so excited to finally have some template to get started on what my imagination has waiting for me

About us

We’re a team of authors and editors who spent decades in writer’s circles, critique groups, and author communities. We've seen writers struggle with the same challenges over and over again.

So, we decided to do something about it, because no one should have to give up on their dreams. 

We pooled the knowledge gained over decades of writing, publishing, and editing to create streamlined, action-based workbooks based on the same systems we used to write and publish over 50 novels.

Fictional worlds so wonderous, readers will wish they could visit.

Not sure you can do it?

We walk you through it, step-by-step, including methods of worldbuilding. Pick the right one for your story.

FAQ

How is this different from what I can find online for free?

Good question!

Not everything on the internet is good advice. It takes a lot of time and effort to sort through the mountains of info to find the useful stuff.

We already did that work.

We spent years writing, editing, and publishing fantasy/sci-fi books. We also read every writing book, blog post, and article we could find and tested the advice. The Essential workbooks combine all that research and practice.

What if I don't have any of the software listed?

The Word version works in Google Docs, Novelr, Pages, and any other software that accepts Word. That's most writing programs!

What if I don't need to build stars/science/magic/etc. for my story?

Skip that chapter in The Essential Workbook.

We believe you shouldn't have to buy one book on fantasy worldbuilding, another on sci-fi, and another on paranormal romance. One guide should help no matter where your muse leads you.

So, The Essential Worldbuilding Workbook will cover topics that might not apply to your current book-- but will apply to a future one. Skip what you don't need.

What if I run into tech problems or lose my download?

Just shoot us an email and we'll help: info@scribeforge.ink

We answer all messages within 24 hours.

How long will my order take to ship?

Digital items arrive in your inbox in 60 seconds.

We print the physical books on demand to reduce waste. This means your order will take a bit longer to ship. Expect about two weeks for processing.

If you want to start writing now, you can grab a digital version at a deep discount when you order a physical one. Just add both to your cart.
