Bestselling author and CEO Scott Hughes has announced the completion of his fifth book’s highly anticipated first draft after successfully funding the book through Kickstarter.

Mr Hughes, the founder of OnlineBookClub, revealed the manuscript of his first draft titled ‘#InItTogether: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All’ to a select pool of backers who have supported the book from its conception.

Finding both motivation and financial support from some of the nearly three million literary-lovers who use OnlineBookClub.org, Mr Hughes was able to bring his fifth book to life whilst managing his busy schedule as a CEO of OnlineBookClub.

The 35-year-old writer’s fifth book is a timely work on the human condition in which he shares his fundamental philosophy for life and his own experiences with struggle, tough times, mental battles, and mindfulness.

It is a warm-hearted manifesto for unity, which offers a ‘helping hand’ to uplift those going through solitary struggles by giving them the tools they’ll need to heal and ultimately fight their ‘demons, both external and internal’.

Speaking about the completion of #InItTogether’s first draft, Mr Hughes said: “My dream is for people to be free, be heard, and feel loved.

“#InItTogether is a book about realizing the uplifting power of love. It’s the most inspiring and motivating thing I’ve ever written.”

After founding OnlineBookClub.org aged only 19 in 2006 Mr Hughes, who lives with his two  children, Tristen and Amaya, in Manchester, Connecticut, has attracted a large personal following – gaining over 176.3k followers on his social media channels.

His latest book ‘#InItTogether: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All’ received 133 backers on Kickstarter, who pledged $2,295 to support him through the writing process in turn for receiving updates as his book progressed.

In a public letter detailing the book’s premise, Mr Hughes revealed that despite finding success following decades of hard work and many personal and professional stuggles, he feels as if sometimes his mind is “still in that hole” and that his struggle is not over.

He told readers: “Truly, reach out to me. Tell me what your struggle is. I’ll do my best to help. I’m not magical, but I want to help.

“Even if I could, I don’t want to claw my way out of a hole to be alone on the surface.

“I don’t want to be up there only with people who don’t know what it’s like to need and to deserve a helping hand. I don’t want to be up there only with cold hands.”

Expectations are high for Mr Hughes’ latest book, which does not yet have a set release date, following a number of previous successes from the author.

His third book Achieve Your Dreams became an instant bestseller, with 4,000 Kindle downloads in the first week.

Additionally, his ‘10 Step Plan to Promote Your Book: Online Book Marketing on Any Budget’ has become a must-read for every author hoping to be more business-minded.

Mr Hughes, an expert in e-book marketing, has worked with over 10,000 independent authors to help them find self-belief whilst getting their work the attention it deserves – and there is no doubt that this author practices what he preaches in every aspect of his life.

Readers can follow the progress of ‘#InItTogether: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All’ on Kickstarter here, where Mr Hughes regularly posts updates on his writing process.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
