And I was reading up a bit about your background as a writer.

And I wasn't aware, but before the Lottie Brooks books, you were writing, it was a blog, a parenting blog.

Yeah, that's how it all kind of started, I guess.

When I had a baby and a toddler and I was finally 20. quite tricky handling them at that at the time.

Okay, cool.

Yeah, wow.

And you were saying earlier that one of your favourite things about the Lottie Brooks books is as someone who was raised in Brighton.

Yeah.

Yet.

And Lottie Brooks' Twelve Disasters of Christmas by Katie Kirby does exactly what it says on the Christmas tin and is another chaotic bestseller waiting to happen.

Finally, in books, Miss Rachel: Merry Christmas Friends from Miss Rachel, obviously, is a fun-filled Christmas adventure for, uh, very younger fans of the YouTube sensation Miss Rachel Rachel.

Oh my God, I'm out of breath.
