I've written a book about historical mysteries, a book about jokes and a book of household tips. I made this!
Hello. I have had three books published in the last four weeks. That's really ridiculous, so I'll repeat it: I've had three books published in the last four weeks. I can't say for certain that I've read three books in that time, so I've briefly achieved every author's dream of going full Garth Marenghi. The books are:
Solve The World's Greatest Mysteries - A really fun book for kids 8-12 or so looking at things like the Bermuda Triangle, the Curse of Tutankhamun, Bigfoot, Skeleton Lake and many more whoppin' bafflerz.
So Bad It's Good: The Art Of The Terrible Joke - A big collection of jokes both old and new, plus needlessly in-depth looks at where joke formats come from, why they're in Christmas crackers and so on.
Adulting Made Easy - A fun, funny guide to the basics of being a grown-up, like cooking, cleaning, paying bills and not having your house repossessed. Ideal for students or the recently bereaved.
The top link is to my bookshop dot org store, the titles link to Amazon UK, your local proper bookshop might have 'em, and if you want, here is a video of me describing them all in rhyming form. You might have your doubts, but eventually you'll be Suede.

Internet TV Shows
Wordle is getting made into a shiny floor game show, which should be very different to Lingo. But what other web things do you think would make for good television spin-offs? Suggested by Rob.
