I may be missing some essential piece of information, but I still don’t understand why you’re writing a book on crushing it — or why your agent(s) even considered it a good idea. I, for one, don’t want to read Gary Vaynerchuk.

I love your passionate physicality — your volume, your mannerisms, the way you put THUNDER into every word and comma (and maybe I’ve even got a man crush on you), but the stuff that makes you you — your DNA, your brand — is not two-dimensional. No matter how much ink you use, I’m betting this kind of thunder won’t show up on the page. Think about it dude: you’d need a second book just to hold all the exclamation points.

Why aren’t you putting out a DVD, or a series of ‘em? Somehow re-inventing the medium? I’d pay for the DVD. I’d even pre-pay for a series. But a book? Maybe I’ll buy, maybe I won’t — but I’ll definitely have to wait for the reviews.

I’ve got nothing but respect and admiration for everything you’ve done and everything you do, Gary. I wish you all the luck in the world with the book, and I’m pretty sure it will crush. With a video though, you wouldn’t need any luck. After all, you’re Gary f*ckin’ Vaynerchuk!!!!!!!!!!
