There are moments that don’t quite feel real — and this is one of them.
My debut book, You’re Overwatering It, is officially stocked in Waterstones.
Yeah… Waterstones.
I still remember walking into that same shop as a teenager, buying Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, and thinking, “Imagine having your own book on these shelves one day.”
Well, teenage me — we bloody did it.
After years of growing, propagating, laughing, killing a few plants along the way (RIP to the fallen), and sharing this wild green journey with you all, You’re Overwatering It is now a real, printed, beautifully illustrated thing — sitting proudly among the literary greats.
About the Book
You’re Overwatering It isn’t just another plant guide — it’s a full-blown plant care adventure.
It’s funny, a bit sweary, full of science, sarcasm, and honesty — helping you level up from nervous newbie to certified jungle boss.
You’ll learn how to actually understand your plants — not just keep them alive — and maybe, just maybe, stop drowning them out of love.
