Wisdom from a Yellow Suitcase - 8 Weeks Later

It's been 8 weeks ago today since Wisdom from a Yellow Suitcase was published and I'm pleased to be able to give some sales figures since the book's release up to the 8 week point!


In its first week, the book went straight in at #1 on the Hot New Releases chart in the Haiku category! and in the same week it was the #11 best selling Haiku book on Amazon and #12 on the Kindle store for Contemporary Poetry! If you'd like to label me as a contemporary poet of my time, I'll happily accept the moniker!


Update on the suitcase for the vaguely interested, the zip mechanism broke and the airline has sent a brand new one to my home address, therefore it comes with great regret that the Yellow Suitcase used in the cover art has now been destroyed; here are some of the original photos for the cover art on the book.

1,000 Useless Facts That Nobody Wanted To Know

Title:  1,000 Useless Facts That Nobody Wanted To Know ISBN: 9781917706070 Release Date:  31st August 2024 Pages: 186 Purchase Price:  £9.99 Purchase Link:   https://amzn.eu/d/hqc5qWR A book containing facts that invoke a curious mind but are so pointless and random nobody would want to know, needs no introduction. With 1,000 factoids, I would say with certainty this is the most varied book of pointless facts to be written as of yet, and I would guarantee you won't find another book out there with the useless information and pointless knowledge that somehow is capable of expanding your inner curiosity, for example: the amount of people killed by vending machines annually, a newspaper published once every 4 years, a public artwork scheduled to finish in 11 centuries from now, and the politician who stands to win a fortune if he gets a promotion, to name a few obscurities. This is the 3rd serving of my useless information book series, I'm back and...

This work is a hub for the information that not a soul wanted to know; the knowledge would be so intriguing you'll wonder why you never had these books any sooner. If you're looking to own a book that'll convince your friends that you have nothing better to do and learn fascinating facts that frighten sane minds, or if you're thinking of going on a quiz show and the jackpot question involves unusable information that would otherwise be irrelevant, you have made a wise purchase. Examples of obscure facts in this sequel to the original include the origin of the most expensive parking ticket, the number of cups required to fill a...
