Successful Phoenix Entrepreneur Pens His First Two Books: Autograph Hell and Remodeling Hell
PHOENIX, AZ - February 25, 2009 - Author Charles Irion (www.irionbooks.com), a successful phoenix entrepreneur today announced the publications of his first two books, Autograph Hell and Remodeling Hell. The Hell Series are books inspired by real-life events and true stories created by actual (Hellish) events that infuriated him to the point of wanting to expose the demons in multiple professions. Forthcoming books in the series will include Car Dealer Hell and Divorce Hell. With a true passion for the written word, Irion began his one of his life long passions by authoring books that are near and dear to his heart. Remodeling Hell describes Irion's journey as he endeavored to build his dream house, which turned into a two-year nightmare. The names have been changed to protect the guilty and incompetent. This book contains often hilarious, but always valuable lessons of what to do and what NOT to do when building a new or remodeling an existing house. The valuable lessons will help people as much today as it will in the future.Autograph Hell was conceptualized when a prized autograph of President George Washington turned out to be fake-- Irion was stunned. As an illustrious, informed autograph collector, how could this happen. Follow Irion on his trail of truth as he starts at the very beginning of autograph collecting to find a world filled with falsified documents and counterfeit signatures – most of which were "authenticated" by the autograph experts who control this multi-million dollar business. Join Irion as he explores a mind-boggling world of autographs that aren't what they seem, run by people who aren't what they claim. This book provides both an enlightening and disturbing expose' of the rampant treachery in the world of autograph collecting. "My books were passionately inspired by my experiences, adventures, and travels," said Charles Irion Entrepreneur, author, philanthropist and adventurer. "My goal is to save other people from the same type of hellish experiences that I had. I hope people enjoy my books as much as I enjoyed writing them."As part of Irion's ongoing philanthropic activities, he will be donating all of the net proceeds of his Hell book series to victims of fraud. Other of his philanthropic endeavors have included being a founding principal in Phoenix Social Venture Partners, the founder of his own children's dictionary program and a past director of the Lions Sight and Hearing Foundation and he participated in a number of medical missions abroad for cataract surgeries. As Mr. Irion endeavors to write additional books to add to this series, he will encompass his passion for the living on the edge, which has run the full gamut. A world traveler to over 80 countries, his exploits have included an attempt to climb Mount Everest to Indy Car Racing classes, to the wild blue yonder of skydiving throughout some of Arizona's best jump sites. Irion continues to embrace living on the edge. He has scuba dived across the globe, he had seen the underwater world from California, to Mexico, Costa Rica, South China Sea, off the island of Phuket in Thailand, Bali, Rio De Janeiro and in Subic Bay of the Philippines.For more information on Mr. Irion and all of his books, please visit www.irionbooks.com. |
