@@strawberryjpeg6000 I wouldn't dare self-promo on a Max Fosh vid...
We all want to follow Amazon’s best selling author on Instagram!!
I found a one star review
"Not about Clocks or worms"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i hate clickbait titles 😆
This is, unfortunately, unlikely as there are no 1 star reviews only 2 1 star ratings as of me writing this
@@kittycatcrunchie It's there, I checked
Lmao
Cute how most of her excitement just came from unexpectedly seeing her friend
I thought the exact same thing, she loves being around him and he really cares enough for his friends to do stuff like this for them. Really cool to see
Hey I'd be hyped up to see a friend like Max Fosh
Maybe it came from seeing the camera, and realizing that she was going to be in one of Max's videos
Ngl once I noticed there was a camera man already behind charlie I was like damnit it’s not totally real but ehh close enough
@@monhi64 That "Camera Man" was the friend who told her that they would go on a walk and she seems to start filming when she already noticed max
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.
I wonder if max just gave it the cheapest price possible. Idk how Amazon even breaks even at 2.77 although that’s in pounds probably so a bit more than I was thinking
@@monhi64 still only 3.50$ or 3.26€
I like the verified purchase that says "I couldn't stop reading. One of the life-changing books that expand your mind and shakes your thinking. Let Jesus be my witness." and then gave it two stars
@@monhi64 it's an e-book for .77£ so there's next to 0 cost for publishing it since it's probably all automated.
@@aaronlo9589 there's also a paperback available
This is just a really elaborate way for Max to tell us he has lots of friends

Yow you look bare covid in that profile pic (cuz ur Peng)
i guess this explains why so many of the 'amazon best seller' books i've read have been shite
Yeah, turns out manipulating reviews and ratings in amazon is extremely easy.
first of all, *R U D E*
secondly, yeah that's true
but not this
Why you gotta do Clock Worm like that? Seriously. You need to get off your high horse and read this magnificent poetry.
The nerve of some people. Judging a dish towel by its cover.
right 🤣
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 🙂
You got me in the first half ngl
I would forever live with my bf if he gave me this as birthday present!!
wasn't expecting that final sentence 😅

Max, you have a degree in English yet still had to Google whether _worm_ was a noun
You can worm your way out of something. So I guess it’s a verb too 🤷🏼♂️
@@pupip55 that is very true
One word - Newcastle
Once you know English deeper, you'll question everything.
well, its not a doing word

He'll not tell lol, he'll just SHOW it 😂
That's what I really like about his videos (of the ones I've seen so far). At the end of each video, someone has a great story to tell their friends.

Dear famous book author Max Fosh, I don't know how you still haven't reached 1m subs.
sincerely, me.
He can game every algorithm, apart from UA-cam's it seems
I don’t know either 😂
it's honestly astonishing the man deserves it and more
Thanks to you, I subbed now!
I know why. His videos are under 10 min. If he gets them over 10 minutes, he will reach 1m subs very fast.
Particularly enjoyed the squirrels bounding past as you read “Covid” 😂
second one was chasing some serious tail
@@MaxFosh a squirrel on a mission!
@@MaxFosh I thought it was a glitch in the matrix and it was the same one twice
I think you’ll find I’m very much a noun, Mr Max Did-An-English-Degree Fosh
Also a verb
Wait till they find out the same person who wrote clock worm is world renowned model maximus Bucharest
Why Musk I Suffer was a better book and you know it Fosh
also the squirrels at 4:46 make it an incredible shot
Hi
At least yours was a very quick read lmao
I wanted my own best seller
Zac are you serious - your book has 100 + blank pages
As someone with 16 books self-published on Amazon so far, this is both hilarious and unbelievably harrowing.
Please be so humble to drop some of your book titles, I promise to check them soon enough.
drop your fav one or should i google name?
This is actually really inspiring, as someone whom has wanted to publish their poetry for ages... I think tonight I might as well try!
@The Lonely Proto yes.. me too.. post the link when you've done it..
Can i suggest a Vogon constructor ship for the cover.. ;9)
Now is one year later.
So did you do it? :)
Was about to ask the same xD
How'd it go lol?
Did you do it? Cuz if not you should, someone will love it and you will feel amazing
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. 🖤
English teachers be like: "Is worm a noun?"
The any-color-but-red heart emoji honeslty sold it for me
Didn’t think he’d be able to outdo the roundabout but strike me down
massive shout out to mike winnet whos video gave me the inspiration for this... link in the descripozza
Is this a shoutout on the max fosh channel?
Please update us on how many sold!
think mike beat you though, with a blank book :)
We love to see friends supporting friends in increasingly extreme and ridiculous ways
This man’s chaotic energy spills out of his British accent
And just like clockworm, it's not available in the US Amazon store :(
you gotta really try to look for it it took me about 30 mins to get there make sure you spell "Char Lie" with a space
Aw
:(
Max has gone and saved blue Monday’s yet again
Nice profile pic
Only Max can make sitting outside the Emirates on a cold winter's day with a table and chairs look normal... 😂
and call it highbury
Just had to buy this book in paperback, it must be a riviting read, the reviews are fantastic
We’re really pushing the boundaries of “Instagram poetry”
Alternative title “English student wonders if worm is a noun”
Sometimes I think about how every single book I've seen is a New York Times Bestseller
tbf, the non best sellers wouldnt be getting sold or talked about lol
It works because of the same reason that this works on amazon, there are pretty niche lists and there aren't that many (legit) books that come out every week (especially not from major publishing houses, especially not all within the same category) and because a lot of people buy books when they've just come out, for that week or two, that book will obviously be bought a lot compared to other books (especially since pre-orders are counted added to first-day sales) and it'll end up somewhere on one of the NYT bestseller list. What you'll want to look at is the top few spots and how long a book has been at that spot (or on the list at all)
@The Lonely Proto Ah if you have time send me the link to that, it sounds like a laugh!
@@user-es7ui5mc1m That does explain it, thank you
you are a fucking genius
If ClockWorm isn’t in your next book review I will be immensely upset
Truth
I don't know about everyone else, but I'd say my Blue Monday is saved!
Imagine having friends that are that excited to see you
That hit way too deep
The squirrel jumping throughout the frame of the Covid poem is ~profound
how does this man come up with ideas like this honestly
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)
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.
I literally went to look at the book on Amazon, cause I thought there might be some funny reviews, and there's a one-star comment that has me really going "Is this sarcasm? Or are you being serious? Did you stumble upon this with no prior knowledge?" Like, I wish I could comment on the review cause I need to know what K thought it was going to be.
On another note, the funny reviews did not disappoint, I've been having a right laugh.
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
This has destroyed my dream of ever becoming a bestselling author in the most vicious way possible. I will become a nishe writer solely.
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.
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 you’re telling me you studied English Lit for 3 years and didn’t know if worm was a noun or not??😭
English Lit 😎
This is like the best gift anyone could ever give a childhood friend. It's hilarious and sweet af
Man that was the most wholesome reaction of a friend seeing another friend i have seen in a long time
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.
i didn’t know you could publish books on amazon just like that, what a cool idea 😁😁
You’re genuinely the best content creator on the platform, your ideas are amazing and I genuinely love each video!
Your creativity is criminally underrated. Keep on going!!
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.
Her reaction to seeing you was so wholesome... what a nice friend.
Whenever I'm feeling down I'm coming back to this video. I need such friends in my life.
Just got the book. All set for tonight’s bedtime deeply intellectual read. Thanks Max and CHAR LIE.
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.
I love how your brain works, Mr.Fosh, your videos are always so entertaining and creative, keep up the good work!
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.
Well I am now 77p poorer and I don’t even have a kindle
We need a sequel but instead of whatsapp messages it’s funny quotes from streetsmart
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
Same here
This gentleman's humour is something else, it was *bloody hysterical*
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 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.
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.*
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.
They should be paying him for promoting their design.
Just bought it, let's keep Clock Worm in the bestseller list
Genius, you manage to come up with something new & inventive every time
This was just hilarious! Thank you for an engaging and lovely story! Cheers to Char Lie! 🍷
Its 2023 and this still #117 in women’s poetry 💀💀💀
Truly a masterpiece
Favourite review: "I've not read this yet, but it's managed to inspire me already."
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
Max, this is really on Another level! Keep going, man!
Just came here to say: Blue monday is saved
Max Fosh: *has English degree*
Also Fax Mosh: is worm a noun
this man really knows how the finesse the system and i love it everytime
The second I saw the name of the book I went on Amazon and bought it.
Well done for making another amazing video Max
Hearing Max say "J.K. Roeling" just made may day
You made Charlie's day and that made me happy
this one vid here is just SOO SWEEET! Cheers Max! FOR GREATER THINGS!
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 🤩
“I’ve got to update my Instagram bio” DEAD
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
You never fail to impress. How do you come up with such amazing and creative ideas?!
That's just so good! Love it!
Keep up the good work!
How you only have 325k subs is a mystery that can, and should, only be described by the poetic words of Char Lie
Honestly, this is the most non-romantic romantic thing ever. I think I'll write a book about 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
I love what you did max... You are working on something that people think imposible to do..
