Within four hours, he had released the erotic novel titled Trump Temptations: The Billionaire & The Bellboy on Amazon. This was Daniel's debut novel.

Trump Temptations became the number one best seller on Amazon.com in three categories: humorous erotica, LGBT erotica, and gay erotica. The book was listed on Amazon above Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James, and was featured in The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, GQ, Gay Star News, London Evening Standard, The Daily Telegraph, and Vice.

An article in Fortune said that Daniel displayed a Trump-like skill to capitalize on a niche demand.

After the Orlando nightclub shooting in June 2016, Daniel publicly urged on Twitter for any closeted people to feel free to contact him privately for support, and he published "An open letter to the LGBT kids who feel lost and scared" on Fusion.net.
