In Mistakes Were Made, I write funny stories about my worst mistakes and greatest fears. My goal is simple: To repackage my misadventures into helpful advice. And to make silly jokes along the way. 

Topics include:

• Pooping at the playground. NOTE: I’m not the one who did the pooping. That would be weird. The pooper was my 3-year-old daughter.
• ​The time when my friends robbed a movie theater.
• Partying with Jeff Bezos. Okay, near Jeff Bezos. In the same room as Jeff Bezos
• And lots more!​

I have spent many nights dwelling on fears that are both rational (Am I a bad parent?) and irrational (What are Vin Diesel’s career prospects outside the Fast & Furious franchise?). But instead of letting these anxieties drive me into a pit of despair, I’m turning them into shiny little nuggets of comedy gold. 

You might never overcome your worries, but at least you can laugh at mine. And maybe learn from my mistakes.

Don't worry! I'll be covering that too! Whenever I have an announcement about a new book or audio original, you'll find out about it in the newsletter.

I write books for kids, but...

Mistakes Were Made is aimed at grown-ups. It's not like kids can't read it. There's no adult content or bad language. But the stuff I write about will probably be more relatable to their parents and teachers. 

So what's it about?

In selecting the subjects for Mistakes Were Made, I rely on a mathematically-proven formula for maximum readworthiness:
