You first became famous on YouTube – how and why?
In 2007 my brother and I started a video blog, making videos for each other, every weekday for a year. For the first 100 videos we only had about 500 viewers, but it was interesting – a collaboration. We started to do projects, many focused around philanthropy. Then, thanks to a grant from Google, we created Crash Course and SciShow, making free educational videos.
How has this part of your life fed your novel writing?
In terms of audiences, it has been a huge boost, although when The Fault in our Stars came out as a film, it took on a life of its own. Now, a lot more people don’t know that I am the person who does both things.
