This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Gif(t) Shop Worker / Travel Agent
From TWAS THE NIGHTSHIFT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, on the clocks going back.
Not going to lie, I need to build up my Insta following before Kay’s Anatomy comes out in a couple of weeks, so here’s a picture of my puppy.
Typical. The week after I publish a book about the body.
Dear President Trump, I thought you might find this helpful. It’s aimed at 8-12 year olds, so perhaps someone could help you with the longer words. Enjoy! Adam PS It’s out on October 15th – order more copies at kaysanatomy.com
A very happy publication day to Konnie & James – the excellent Trumplestiltskin is available anywhere books are sold! @cookiebykonnie @jamesgfarrell

KAY’S ANATOMY is out tomorrow, for the 7-12 year olds in your life. If all my followers just bought twenty copies each, that would still be really appreciated. Link in bio, but I’m pretty sure you know how to buy books without my help tbh.
My lockdown diaries are in today’s @thestmagazine – I’m not quite sure how this entry got signed off and printed in the Sunday Times, but I guess it’s 2020 and all bets are off.
Smashing out the old surgical skills for some emergency facial surgery as the puppy destroys her favourite toy.
Finished decorating the tree.
I wonder at what point my publishers will regret letting me write the copy for my books’ adverts.
I don’t know how often a medical textbook – however disgusting – is the bestselling book on Amazon but this is rather good news. Thank you to everyone who’s bought a copy for their kids. (Or themselves, let’s be honest.)
KAY’S ANATOMY is out on Thursday! Described as “Totally brilliant” by Jacqueline Wilson and “delicious” by my puppy, Pip. Pre-order now from kaysanatomy.com or your lovely local bookshop. I’ve got a signed & dedicated copy to give away – tag someone to win and I’ll announce the winner on Saturday eve.
THANK YOU EVERYONE (and soz Peppa)
As Theatreland shuts up shop, still some joy in Leicester Square to see the love for DEAR NHS. Voted one of Amazon’s most anticipated books of the year – and £275k raised for charity (and counting). Thanks to everyone who has bought it, or is about to as a panicked Xmas present.
Extremely excited for people to get a first peek at my kid’s book KAY’S ANATOMY in today’s @thestmagazine. It’s out on Thursday in your lovely local bookshop or various book-related websites.
Extraordinary publicake-tion day deliciousness from @popbakery (including my dog who has a fairly major role in the book)
In one week, a special new edition of DEAR NHS is being released, signed and in a fancy “slipcase”. This has got Christmas present written all over it (invisibly) and all profit goes to charity: £270k and counting.
KAY’S ANATOMY is out on 15th October and you can pre-order (link in bio) for the 8-12 year olds in your life. It is one of very few books to include the index in the index.
Congratulations to �10-year-old Emily Barrett, who won our Young Inventor competition in collaboration with @littleinventors and @young.vam, by creating her very own Incredible Invention 👏 Find her idea in Henry and my new book, ‘Kay’s Incredible Inventions’, and come and see the real thing in the Young V&A shop! 🤖 #AdamKay #HenryPaker #KaysIncredibleInventions #YoungInventor #YoungVAM #Pippin
It’s Incredible Inventions paperback day! 🤖🚽 KAY’S INCREDIBLE INVENTIONS is out now! It’s an A to Z of the random, ridiculous and revolutionary inventions that changed our lives. (And some that definitely didn’t …) It’s great for kids aged 7 and you can find it online and in bookshops now!
How brilliant! AMY GETS EATEN by @henrypaker and me has been nominated for @theweekjunior book awards. Good luck to all the nominees, but mainly us.
