Mortality is my biggest special so far. Thanks to everyone who watched it and especially to those who complained. You never let me down 😂

Who needs a big marketing budget behind you when you have Bluesky? I swear I will keep hammering this thing until I have sold an entire eleven and a half copies of this book.
Found you on here via ppl reposting your hilarious dog photo thread; read the book excerpt, love it, and have just now ordered a copy straight from Blackwell’s.

"That's not why you were invented."

"These 153,000 fan letters say otherwise."

"They're all from upcycled toasters. And you programmed them."

That’s possibly my favourite episode; the walk to the plane when neither knows which one to get in is classic 👌🏻😆
Whenever I need cheering up I watch the bit in his show when he takes a flying lesson and walks to a plane with a guy - both thinking the other is the instructor. Typical Arthur!

I'm going to watch it now!

Reposting a few of my more popular Bluesky bits from this year, for those who missed them.

4. The Empathy Of Owls...
Almost certainly the best thing I was ever told about owls was when I met an owl handler at an owl sanctuary and he told me that the wild owls who lived near the sanctuary worried about the tame show owls there and sometimes stopped by to leave them shrews and mice as presents.

Here we go again. Trump has told the UK that if we want a UK-US tech deal, we need to buy chlorinated chicken from the US! 🤢🐔 How dare he try and impose poor food standards in Britain. Sign the petition to keep chlorine-washed chicken off our shelves: 38d.gs/cc-df

I’ll do it as soon as that million hits the bank
If you had a million pounds Arthur you could send everyone on here who follows you a cheque for approximately £382.56, wouldn't that be a lovely gesture?

Loving this
I've removed the paywall permanently from this piece, which is a chapter from my novel Villager, told entirely in the form of an online village message board. If you like it, you'll probably like the book. If you don't, you won't...

The Village Message Board
Its authenticity was discredited because of his reputation, but also because he was quick with gin at the time and wearing an item of knitwear back to front.

I didn't have the word count in this post but what I actually mean is not just "bought". I also mean "borrowed from the library" or "spread the word about these books, in even a small way". All of that has been a vital part of the fight. A collective fuck you to people who take advantage of artists.
At the beginning of the year I had to face up to the fact my ex-publishers were imploding & would never pay me what they owed me for the 7 books I wrote for them.

It's been a battle.

There's still a lot of repair work to be done.

Bluesky has helped.

If you bought one of these in 2025, thank you.

Thanks for asking this. It's always best to buy from independent bookshops or @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social. But for a limited time I'm also selling a few of them myself with a free bit of my mum's art, if anyone wants to email me at hello@tom-cox.com for details.

Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

And I hear they have just a few signed ones left.
