I believe that you still cannot add a local grimoire using scribe, but you 
can 
manually add it to your /etc/sorcery/local/grimoire file like so:

GRIMOIRE_DIR[0]=/home/jason/custom
GRIMOIRE_DIR[1]=/var/lib/sorcery/codex/devel
GRIMOIRE_DIR[2]=/var/lib/sorcery/codex/test
GRIMOIRE_DIR[3]=/var/lib/sorcery/codex/stable

I keep mine in my home directory (and not my codex directory) 'cause I back 
it 
up.

Within that directory (/home/jason/custom, in my case) you set up your 
sections which hold the spells.  Here are the sections that are in my custom 
grimoire:

jason@jason:~/custom$ ls
bible  devel  editors  finance  graphics  kde  kernels  libs  mail  misc  net 
 
perl-cpan  printer  sgl  utils  x11  z-rejected

Notice also that I have three sections (bible, finance and misc) which are 
not 
a part of the regular grimoires, but which work just fine.
