Orrin Hudson, author of One Move At A Time: How To Play And Win At Chess and Life, has achieved “best-seller” status on several Amazon.com charts.

One Move At A Time topped two different best-seller lists on Amazon.com. The Kindle e-book ranked #1 in the departments of “Board Games” and “Chess,” as well as top 30 rankings in “Puzzles and Games” and “Personal Transformation.”

Hudson is the founder of BeSomeone.org, an Atlanta-based non-profit that uses numerous tools, including the game of chess, to promote self-esteem, responsibility, and analytical thinking among at-risk kids.

“I am so blessed, and truly blessed, because today is the best day of my life because I get to work with kids,” says Hudson.  “Teaching and helping kids makes my heart sing and I’m so honored and blessed to be a part of changing the world one move at a time.”

Hudson, a former Alabama state trooper, was himself an “at-risk” kid.  As the 7th sibling of thirteen, Orrin was in and out of foster homes and involved in petty crime.  When he was thirteen, a teacher took him under his wing and taught him the game of chess.

By his senior year in high school, Orrin had moved from in-trouble and at-risk to being voted “Most Likely to Succeed” and “Outstanding Student.”

Hudson continues this legacy by sharing the game with children.

One Move At A Time details his message that people can succeed in life by thinking ahead, just like in the board game.

Topics of discussion include the “All the Right Moves,” “The Art of War,” and “Plan Ahead.”
