The voices behind the pages

David Frank

Creator of The Neurotic Noob's Guide Series

David Frank didn't set out to become a tech educator. He set out to avoid technology entirely. That didn't work out.

After years of anxiety-Googling phrases like "is AI going to replace me" and "why does Alexa laugh at night," David realized something important: the best tech teachers aren't the experts—they're the people who were terrified yesterday but figured it out anyway.

As the creator of The Neurotic Noob series, David writes guides for people over 40 who feel left behind by technology but are tired of feeling stupid about it. He has strong opinions about robots and once spent 20 minutes troubleshooting his Wi-Fi before realizing it wasn't plugged in.

About PPG Books

PPG Books is an independent publisher dedicated to making technology accessible to everyone—especially those who've been told they're "too old" or "not tech-savvy enough" to learn.

We believe the best teachers are the ones who remember what it felt like to not understand. Our books combine genuine expertise with empathy, delivered through humor that makes learning feel less like homework and more like conversation.

No jargon without explanation
No condescension, ever
Humor that respects the reader
Real value, not just entertainment
