My guest today is a successful author and screenwriter, and has written a book an produced a movie about his life, called I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell.
His books have sold over 3 million copies and have been translated into 30 different languages.
My guest also founded (and sold) Tropaion Publishing, which
pioneered the idea of author as publisher. He later co-founded Book
in a Box after a busy entrepreneur asked if she could write a book
without actually writing it.
The company's mission is to help people turn their wisdom,
knowledge and ideas into professionally published books without
having all the hassle that comes with it. Book in a Box made an
amazing $200,000 in its first two months and is still going
strong.
