Hula Ink
Publishes Videos
We at Hula ink believe that literature should be heard as well as seen. So we invented the video book! (Not really, I’m sure the idea was already out there.)
A video book is like an audiobook, but you watch it (or you can listen to it) on Vimeo.
From heart-warming Cat Tales to disturbingly dark Nightmares, from New Legends of Hawai’i to books on philosophy, life and striving for success –
Hula Ink publishes a range of titles, short and long, fiction and non-fiction, that reflect the interests of our authors (some books published under the name E.T. Hansen are collaborative works).
Explore our titles, our series and our upcoming projects – including political commentary and books for kids.

Grumpy Old Writer’s
Writing Rules
As a teacher and coach of Creative Writing in Berlin, E.T. Hansen often stumbles accross “Rules of Writing” – lists of ten rules or so that established writers pass on to beginners.
In this video series, Grumpy Old Writer takes random rules by random writers and talks about them and his experiences writing. The video series is on YouTube (short version) and Vimeo (long version).

There is Something in Life That Conspires to Kill Us All
I believe everyone should read this book, ideally one chapter a day. So I modernized the text and recorded each chapter on video and put them online – for free.
I also put up a long version with commentary. Visit the dedicated page for more information on the book and video series.
