In the inaugural edition of the BBJ’s Startup Insights video series, Libboo CEO Chris Howard opens up about how he got his startup off the ground — including how he pretended to be an investor at an event while working to raise funding. Watch the video here.

Libboo, a MassVentures-backed company has developed an online service for authors to publish their own books. In April, “Chocrotes and the World without Question,” a Libboo-published book by a Somerville author, reached No. 1 on an Amazon.com list of new children’s releases.

In May, the company was one of at least four startups who got to TechStars Boston demo day with seed capital in hand.
