Do I need design skills or a writing background?

Absolutely not. While Scrively is used by professional writers from around the globe, it's also used by everyday parents like us. You can write your own book from scratch. You can use the power of AI to help improve your writing and/or give you ideas. And you can even write entire books with AI, based on your specific prompts (i.e. what you tell it to write for you). It's super simple and straightforward. Heck, even your kids, themselves, can craft books!
