I Wrote a #1 Best Selling Book Using My Friend's Texts 

Can confirm I did update my Instagram bio lol

I found a one star review "Not about Clocks or worms"

Cute how most of her excitement just came from unexpectedly seeing her friend

A user on Amazon bought the book and this is what she said: "I don't see the point of this book but it was OK to read not much to red tho it passed 5 mins". She gave 3 stars.

This is just a really elaborate way for Max to tell us he has lots of friends

Being Max's friend is surely a risky endeavour

"I’ve had a horrible time recently since some posh bloke invaded my village and stole my roundabout. This book made me forget about everything for a little while, and that’s a good thing. Thank you for such art." -amazon reviewer

my boyfriend just bought this book for my birthday. He has been obsessed with your videos since you opened your bilibili channel. He even paid £4 to gift wrap it. You have no idea how happy I was after finding that purple box beautifully wrapped with sliver ribbon, and how speechless I was when I opened it. Thanks for ruining my birthday 🙂

i guess this explains why so many of the 'amazon best seller' books i've read have been shite

Please sell your tea towel as merch

I've watched many videos in my time, but this video that I'm about to watch is probably going to be one of the best videos I've ever watched, once I've watched it.

I shall now self-publish a book under Rural Life Humor called, 'Accounting and Lemon Juice.'

by "Char Lie" hahahahahahaha

dude when this guy gets old he'll have some fucking banging stories to tell his grandkids

Dear famous book author Max Fosh, I don't know how you still haven't reached 1m subs. sincerely, me.

Max, you have a degree in English yet still had to Google whether _worm_ was a noun

*went to arguably the most prestigious school in the UK or even the world* ‘Is worm a noun?’

Particularly enjoyed the squirrels bounding past as you read “Covid” 😂

I think you’ll find I’m very much a noun, Mr Max Did-An-English-Degree Fosh

This is actually really inspiring, as someone whom has wanted to publish their poetry for ages... I think tonight I might as well try!

massive shout out to mike winnet whos video gave me the inspiration for this... link in the descripozza

English teachers right now: Look at the passion and the belief the writer has for this phrase on page 172. Outstanding. Beautiful. The raw emotion. 🖤

Wait till they find out the same person who wrote clock worm is world renowned model maximus Bucharest

Didn’t think he’d be able to outdo the roundabout but strike me down

We love to see friends supporting friends in increasingly extreme and ridiculous ways

As someone with 16 books self-published on Amazon so far, this is both hilarious and unbelievably harrowing.

Why Musk I Suffer was a better book and you know it Fosh

This man’s chaotic energy spills out of his British accent

And just like clockworm, it's not available in the US Amazon store :(

Max has gone and saved blue Monday’s yet again

Just had to buy this book in paperback, it must be a riviting read, the reviews are fantastic

Alternative title “English student wonders if worm is a noun”

I don't know about everyone else, but I'd say my Blue Monday is saved!

you are a fucking genius

Only Max can make sitting outside the Emirates on a cold winter's day with a table and chairs look normal... 😂

Imagine having friends that are that excited to see you

Sometimes I think about how every single book I've seen is a New York Times Bestseller

We’re really pushing the boundaries of “Instagram poetry”

how does this man come up with ideas like this honestly

I love how the only 1 star review I could find for this book said: "I didn't learn anything about worms or clocks".

Max, thanks for this and so many other wonderful videos. I decided to buy this book because it’s delightfully eccentric, and it also kicked my Amazon order over $25 so I got free shipping on my other item 😂. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to reading this monumental literary work.

The squirrel jumping throughout the frame of the Covid poem is ~profound

You are the most refreshing thing that's happened to the internet in a while... I have come to really look forward to your next endeavour and somehow you acctually manage to outdo yourself again and again. Thank you for bringing some lightness into our quarantine homes.

Man that was the most wholesome reaction of a friend seeing another friend i have seen in a long time

Well I am now 77p poorer and I don’t even have a kindle

It's really easy to get a bestseller. Has it ever occurred to anyone that there were way too many "Bestsellers" at the same time in a bookstore? A best seller isn't a representation of how good the book is. Plenty of popular books are not actually best sellers. To get on a list you have to sell X amount in X time. So what some authors do is just buy out that many of their own books to make it a best seller (and then donate/sell them again)

You’re genuinely the best content creator on the platform, your ideas are amazing and I genuinely love each video!

Just got the book. All set for tonight’s bedtime deeply intellectual read. Thanks Max and CHAR LIE.

Every video you make is like a mixed bag. I never know what to expect but I'm always oddly satisfied and surprised at the end.

Your creativity is criminally underrated. Keep on going!!

This is like the best gift anyone could ever give a childhood friend. It's hilarious and sweet af

Whenever I'm feeling down I'm coming back to this video. I need such friends in my life.

i didn’t know you could publish books on amazon just like that, what a cool idea 😁😁

Blue Monday is saved For someone who cuts everyone’s shoutout, we’re all doing you a major favour by playing the commenting game posh

Her reaction to seeing you was so wholesome... what a nice friend.

Well that's very sweet... He really made her a tale she can always share in the future that would instantly brightens up the room.

This gentleman's humour is something else, it was *bloody hysterical*

This is how I feel when I spend hours on my art and my aunt comes in and asks me if I'm good with paint, because she needs a wall to be whitened.

this one vid here is just SOO SWEEET! Cheers Max! FOR GREATER THINGS!

This was just hilarious! Thank you for an engaging and lovely story! Cheers to Char Lie! 🍷

That is a wonderful thing. Sure, it's a silly idea for a youtube video... but the end result is it technically made your friend a best selling author. Making dreams come true... what a lovely friend you are. Well done you.

That was sweet how excited they were to see you, very excited. Keep in touch with people, even ones that you think probably forgot you. The couple who ran your airbnb remembers you, your doctor/4th grade teacher does, so definitely your old friends do. *everyone, imagine how more excited people could be to see regularly, or in a text chat. AND in person (or online, its okay), in person is so much fun, especially when you feel easy and not anxious or at least are just as anxious as they are.* Maybe visit your old teachers when you visit your parents next. IDK if I'd do that, not seeing people is also easy and fun. But its like taking a shower, remember, its an extremely enjoyable thing (when they fit with your energy level) but we feel a wierd dread for happy things. Sometimes the anxiety stays, doesnt mean you don't like them, and you can always explain that to someone. Say its not personal, just that you have social anxiety, and not that they make you feel uncomfortable, but you like talking online. Then just go out of your way to do coffee dates anyway, it feels fantastic to be invited even if you don't have time. And sometimes people remember they're busy - no, they're not flaking, I could've had that anxiety but I knew people do just get busy too. If they didn't like you, they wouldn't be talking to you. And maybe you initiate the conversations (I'm the initiator), that doesn't mean you're being annoying, just that they have a more passive energy, or adapted to your initiator energy. Stop being dumb, people like you, for one you care about how they're feeling, so that's one thing. And what if someone doesnt? Well, that's as rare as really liking someone, to dislike them - but you can have more chemistry with peopel than you expect. Just talk to someone. *And invite people to things!* (I did it once with a friend-acquintance and it was fun, and there wasn't an expectation to do it again. But you don't have to. You can lie in bed for an hour, then get up and invite your friend to coffee. Feeling like you HAVE to go out might make you dread it and stay in. Remembering you dont HAVE to do anything, but are doing it anyway, makes it easier to step outside your comfort zone. *This isn't a universal mental health help, this is just what makes sense to me, and my understanding both of me and what I think might help a more socially anxious person. Do NOT feel bad if anything I say gives you dread, everybody's got their bubble, its fun to pop it sometimes but your not BAD if you choose to float around in it. It's like were on the beach, and I'm in the water, and it's warm, and I say you should come in. But you can't get up from the hot sand. You can come in whenever you want, or not at all, no pressure. But you might want to - the water's great) *Edit: Went on a mental-health tangent, hmm.*

I love how your brain works, Mr.Fosh, your videos are always so entertaining and creative, keep up the good work!

This has destroyed my dream of ever becoming a bestselling author in the most vicious way possible. I will become a nishe writer solely.

We need a sequel but instead of whatsapp messages it’s funny quotes from streetsmart

Max you’re telling me you studied English Lit for 3 years and didn’t know if worm was a noun or not??😭

I've watched a number of videos in my time, but this video that I'm about to watch is probably going to be one of the best videos I've ever seen, once I've seen it.

Hilarious!! Max’s channel is definitely a bit of brightness during lockdown.

i was literaly about to google how to publish a poetry book. Ive been writing some pretty inspring haiku in lockdown and though they might need sharing

In his next video, Max will be telling us how he's being sued for using a tea towel company's copyrighted pattern for a book cover.

You never fail to impress. How do you come up with such amazing and creative ideas?!

Genius, you manage to come up with something new & inventive every time

Just bought it, let's keep Clock Worm in the bestseller list

You made Charlie's day and that made me happy

I have waited for this. And I loved it

This is so wholesome. It would be cool if he did more videos where he fulfilled his friends' dreams, even if they're odd or obscure ones

Your videos are the ones I rewatch once in a while because they’re so funny. I am not a native English speaker so please excuse my plump compliment. I wish I could think about some phrases just as good as your poetry. Bye

Favourite review: "I've not read this yet, but it's managed to inspire me already."

That's just so good! Love it! Keep up the good work!

Max Fosh, your creativity and spirit of adventure just blows me away...I'd love to add some of that into my life...You've made me believe that NOTHING is impossible 🤩

This is #1 in Love Poetry. I mean if my friends got me to be a best-seller, I think it shows that they care.

“I’ve got to update my Instagram bio” DEAD

this man really knows how the finesse the system and i love it everytime

This might be the best channel on RU-vid 😂😂😂 this guy's a god, literally he can do anything he want 😂😂😂

Hearing Max say "J.K. Roeling" just made may day

Pretty rubbish day, off to read the most brilliant book I'll ever anticipate reading. Cheers

Max, this is really on Another level! Keep going, man!

The second I saw the name of the book I went on Amazon and bought it. Well done for making another amazing video Max

How you only have 325k subs is a mystery that can, and should, only be described by the poetic words of Char Lie

Robbie Knox cameo made my day. Thank you Robbie, very cool

It was so sweet to see how excited she was to see you

I love what you did max... You are working on something that people think imposible to do..

Who would ever think of taking a picture of a hand towel for a book cover. I love this channel.

4:44 "This one's called Co.... OH LOOK A SQUIRREL!"

This is genius, just wanted to say aswell that your videos genuinely make my day when I see a new one pop up, the first time I saw one of your videos was the Takeshis castle series, and I thought it was such a funny idea, I love how you make these daft concepts a reality and its also so refreshing to see somebody who doesn't take themselves too seriously, keep this stuff coming fosh, I'll lap it up all day long

That is just straight up wholesome

Just came here to say: Blue monday is saved

I still can’t get past the fact that Max puts butter AND Nutella on his toast! Honestly it keeps me awake at night... 😖😟

I've never seen a video of you. Don't know who you are. But I love this. I'm gonna treat myself with a copy of the book and watch more videos.

Every video is better than the last - worth the wait every time :)
