Hong Kong student Stanley Tang was just 11-years-old when his first book was published. After running a small micro business at his school selling snacks to classmates, Stanley decided to research famous entrepreneurs. He recorded his findings in a book, entitled eMillions: Behind-The-Scenes Stories of 14 Successful Internet Millionaires. Immediately after publishing, the book skyrocketed to Amazon’s best-selling list! What a micro business! Now, a high school graduate, Stanley runs his own blogs and plans to study computer science at Stanford University.
Any idea, whether nonfiction like Stanley or your own collection of short stories, can become a best-selling book. Take a look at my book, Running a Micro Business, to get started!
