After two decades of helping others tell their stories—through books, brand launches and content campaigns—Sara Bliss found herself drawn to a new chapter. One that would allow her to bring together everything she had learned from working behind the scenes with visionaries like Aerin Lauder, Bobbi Brown, L’Etoile Sport and Alex Mill. The result? Scribes & Stories—a creative studio dedicated to telling bold, beautiful, brand-defining stories.
At Scribes & Stories, Bliss helps authors and brands translate their ideas into compelling narratives, from full-length nonfiction books to sleek catalogs, punchy speeches and everything in between. Bliss personally concepts each project and assembles a bespoke team of writers, graphic designers and marketers to bring the vision to life. Every piece they produce is rooted in one belief: story is at the heart of every great brand—and every unforgettable book.
For years, Bliss heard the same refrain from founders and creatives alike: “I know I have a great story… I just don’t know how to tell it.” She launched Scribes & Stories to be the answer to that challenge. Whether building a brand voice from scratch, producing polished email copy or crafting a book proposal destined for a Big Five publisher, their work is designed to engage audiences, leave a lasting impression, and drive results..
The response has been extraordinary. They’re currently collaborating with a dream list of clients across industries—hospitality, jewelry, interior design, fashion and philanthropy—each bringing their own passion and purpose to the table. It’s been a joy to help them refine their voice, elevate their message and bring their stories into the spotlight.
In addition to their studio work, Bliss created a series of virtual courses to serve aspiring authors who want to write their own books. Their flagship program, The Book Proposal Incubator, helps writers go from idea to agent-ready proposal in just nine weeks. Publishing can be a tough world to break into—especially if you’re not a celebrity or influencer. Her goal is to make the process transparent and empowering, and to help new voices break through.
Westport has been the perfect place to grow this vision. The creative energy here is magnetic. As a mother, writer, and founder, Bliss feels lucky to live in a community that values both artistry and entrepreneurship. Scribes & Stories is more than a business—it’s a love letter to the power of storytelling. And they’re just getting started.
