I’m Daniel Thomas Hind, and I’m the only person outside of his legal team who knows The Author’s true identity.
I’m helping The Author publish THE AUTHOR by The Author when no one else will.
I’m not a literary agent. I’m not even in the publishing industry.
I’m an executive coach. I work behind the scenes with CEOs, entrepreneurs, and yes, even a few celebrities — helping them build and scale their businesses, prioritize their physical and mental health, and learn to thrive from the pressure of success.
So how did I end up as The Author’s sole representative on this insane project?
Here’s the short version:
The Author’s agency told him that he was “welcome” to publish his book under two conditions:
(1) The Author must release the book anonymously (to prevent him from being “sued or canceled”); and
(2) His agency will not be representing the project (because they think it’s career suicide).
Stripped of his name and representation, The Author has been forced to sit on this book for years.
That’s where I came in.
A mutual connection introduced me to The Author after his agents refused to touch the book. He sent me the manuscript. I read it in one sitting.
It was raw, dark, hilarious, dangerous—a novel that captured the essence of our time perfectly.
I told The Author I’d help, whatever it took, whatever he needed.
For all of 2024, The Author and I worked together to bring his project to life.
That meant:
I truly believe that literature can save us from irreparable stupidity.
That’s why I’m risking everything, including:
To take on the challenge of representing The Author.
I’ve recently put my lucrative career on hold and opened a boutique management company called Meta Lit Entertainment––whose only client is The Author.
My goal is simple and powerful: to make The Author, veiled in anonymity, the literary figurehead our generation is desperately missing.
A figurehead to rally behind.
Like the Satoshi Nakamoto of Literature.
And yet all too human—a deeply flawed and hypocritical character who still demands you to root for him, because his ambitions contain inarguable truths that we can no longer avoid.
Because if we don’t start putting down our screens and reconnecting with our latent intellectual powers––
We’re truly fucked.
Our imaginations not only crave but require long periods of nourishment, periods removed from the stimulation of screens, the texts, the alerts, the scrolling, the cheap dopamine, the superficial tourism of others’ lives, the dinging, the ringing, the demands of others, and so on.
My invitation is to nourish yourself today.
Put down the phone, close your laptop. Pick up a book and read.
I believe THE AUTHOR by The Author can be your gateway drug to reading.
