Hello!

I’m James Breakwell, Twitter-famous non-celebrity and author of The Chosen Twelve, How to Be a Man (Whatever That Means), and a whole mess of comedy parenting books. And now I have a Substack account I think you’re really going to like.

Join for free to get my famous Monday morning newsletter, which details my greatest, most hilarious (for you, not for me) disaster from the previous week.

Why become a paid subscriber?

The Monday morning email will always be free for everyone, but for $5/month or $50/year paid subscribers get:

  • Bonus Friday emails
    Every Friday morning, I’ll send you an all-new comedy article exclusive to paid subscribers.

  • Full access to the archives

    This includes every newsletter I’ve ever written going back to the dawn of time. (Okay,  more like 2018 when I wrote the very first one, but I think we can all agree that’s when time started getting good).

  • Discussion threads

    This will be where we swap parenting/life/disaster stories and share funny/world-changing advice about how to be more and/or less like us.

  • Audio messages

    Sometimes, they’ll just be my funny musings about life, while other times, they’ll be direct answers to your questions. I’ll even record podcasts of me reading the articles to you for people who don’t have time to read them themselves but might be able to listen to them while simultaneously doing nineteen other things. Multitasking is a curse.

  • Exclusive webcomics

    These will be in addition to my regular daily webcomics, which will forever remain free to all.

  • Early access to new books, events, and projects

    Any time I come up with anything, you’ll be the first to know.

  • Dedicated, professional tech support

    No more missing emails. Now there’s a team to solve every problem and get back to you almost right away. That gives you quicker resolutions and me more time to make more stuff.
