Hugh is so funny. Look at him. He's a little nervous it seems, but who wouldn't be. So charming.

[@BossLifeHacks]

This is a beautiful talk with a lot of great value for any author who is unsure of their publishing route. I learned a lot, and laughed a bit too. Thanks! Btw, I found this through the subreddit on self publishing. Peace

I've just noticed something. Hugh Howey isn't reading from a teleprompter, is he? He's speaking off the cuff. He's like Obama in that sense. that's an amazing gift. Wow. This guy is full of surprises. I haven't seen him look at one piece of paper.
