About Tim Grahl
Tim Grahl runs book launches for business and self-help authors. Over eighteen years he has put dozens of books on the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller lists, for authors including Daniel Pink, Charles Duhigg, Chip and Dan Heath, Michael Moss, Hugh Howey, Jonah Berger, and Ramit Sethi. In one week in 2013 he had five clients on the New York Times bestseller list at the same time.
He spent most of the 2010s building Story Grid, the fiction education company he runs with Shawn Coyne, and since 2025 has returned to taking on a small number of launches each year. Recent launches include Mo Bunnell's Give to Grow and Steve Kamb's How to Try Again.
He is the author of six books, including Your First 1000 Copies, Running Down a Dream, and the novel The Shithead, and co-hosts the Story Grid Podcast. He lives in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
