Just how often are completely new grimoires created? It is probably easier to borrow or steal the grimoire you want. Then you just have to learn the spells and copy them before adding you own new ones. Sooner or later someone else will steal yours and so it goes on with various versions of the grimoire in unoffical circulation.
