I'm ready to take it to the top.

Because I wasn't doing it for the money.

And I think when you look at it from that perspective, you can build it.

People build sustainable business models off of being Harry Potter fans.

I wrote it because it was something in my gut that I couldn't quite explain.

And then everything panned out from there.

I'm 24.

I was 19.

It came out when I was 20.

What provoked me was I was sitting in economics class.

I was playing college basketball and I realized it was not a conducive place for my learning.

Traveled around the world, realized I wasn't looking for passport stamps.

I needed to come back and do something.

And I thought, you know, it was a way I could make a difference.

I saw Wayne Dyer and these guys build a good living off it.

I figured I could make a difference and make a good living.

And that's what prompted it.

What was the name of the book?

Yeah.

Well, I thought I was going to get a traditional publisher until I realized no one would traditionally publish it.
