National best-selling author David Weaver is not one to let obstacles stop him, instead of waiting for a big break, he successfully took his writing career into his own hands and launched a publishing company despite the odds stacked against him. Weaver created Smart Black and Rich publishing while on the phone in prison after the guard announced he only had 30 seconds remaining to talk. Today, after serving five years in federal prison, Weaver has become an unstoppable force in the publishing industry. Literary critics and readers of his work describe his writing as poetic and captivating. Weaver leaves his audience astonished by his intricate similes and unbelievable metaphors. Smart Black and Rich is a product of Weaver applying his visionary mind as a writer to publishing to help other black authors and promote literature relevant to the African American culture. Weaver’s publishing company has been rated one of the top urban publishing companies. He has managed to recruit more than 26 new authors to his publishing company after being out of prison for only two years. In this short time frame, Weaver has also been honored with the African-Americans on the Move Book Club Literary Award for 2012 and 2013. His series, Bankroll Squad, has sold close to 60,000 copies to date. Devotees of Weaver’s writing have shown him an abundance of support — even getting tattoos inspired by the book series to show their love for his work. The Smart Black and Rich publishing company has catapulted Weaver to the forefront of the urban literary community as a new leader. The author wants to continue to instill the life lessons he has learned in prison to up-and-coming authors. Weaver’s very strong foundation of faith has brought him through his tumultuous time in prison to his newfound journey in publishing. “Faith is believing in things unproven, seeing things unseen, and reaching for things not there yet,“ said Weaver. Fans can look forward to other great works from David Weaver as well as from the other writers under the Smart Black and Rich imprint.
