Frequently asked.

That is the whole of the work. Every sentence is built from what you said and how you say it, and you review every chapter. A rav should be able to claim every word of his sefer.

No. A sefer carries only the sources you cited. If a chapter needs something more, we look for it in your other shiurim, and if it is not there, we ask you.

We do, at the text itself, never from a summary or from memory. Anything we cannot locate comes to you as a question rather than being guessed or filled in.

They are never ours to decide. Anything that touches psak is marked for you, and stays as you rule.

As involved as you want. Some rabbanim mark every chapter; others read the finished manuscript and send a few notes. You review on your own private page, whenever suits you.

Haskamos are between a rav and his peers; we don't arrange them. We prepare the manuscript in the form a posek expects to review, and typeset the haskamos you receive as facsimiles of the letters.

Yes. The manuscript is yours, and can go to any publisher you choose, prepared to that publisher's own submission guidelines. Or it can go to print with us, through the Complete Sefer.

It is your Torah, and your name is on it. The rights and terms of every engagement are set out in writing before work begins.

Anything: YouTube, TorahAnytime, podcasts, Zoom, WhatsApp voice notes, and older cassettes and tapes, which are digitised first. A simple phone recording made at the back of a shiur works too.

Yes. We work from shiurim in English, Hebrew and Yiddish, translate between them, and set seforim right to left with proper nikud.

A report on a manuscript you already have: whether it is sound, with every source checked at the text, and how it is likely to land, through a panel of seven readers. More about the reading.

Modelled readers, each built from what a particular kind of frum reader buys, loves and puts down: a mithazek, an avreich, a rebbe, a frum mother, a Bais Yaakov teacher, a publisher's reader and a browser in a seforim store. None of them is a real person. They show how your book is likely to be received; they are not a haskama and not a publisher's acceptance.

Not in the reading. The report tells you what we found and leaves the decisions to you. If you want the edit it calls for, that is a separate step, and only if you ask.

Every archive and every manuscript is different, so we scope each one. Tell us what you have and we will send you a proposal. A sample chapter from one of your shiurim costs nothing.
