A growing collection of conversations exploring authorship, publishing, knowledge, learning and legacy.
Veer Singh and Ved have been friends for as long as either can remember.
As a young lion, Veer was curious about the world. He asked questions about learning, work, success, knowledge and legacy. His closest companion was Ved, a book who seemed to contain the wisdom of countless generations.
Years passed.
Veer grew into a respected professional, building expertise through experience, study and service. Yet whenever he faced an important question, he found himself returning to his old friend.
One day, Veer asked:
"Can I become an author?"
That question began a new series of conversations.
Today, Veer represents every aspiring author, educator, entrepreneur, researcher, professional and lifelong learner who wishes to share knowledge with the world.
Ved represents the wisdom preserved in books and passed from one generation to the next.
The conversations collected here explore many of the questions authors ask during their publishing journey.
