Latest news
AROUND THE WORLD
The latest HH book, Around The World In 80 Words, arrived in UK bookshops in October 2018—and, after long last, the HH yearbook of forgotten word, The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities, landed in the USA and Canada in November 2019. Don’t despair, US readers—Around The World will be with you as early as March 2020 too...
PAPERBACK EDITIONS
Thanks to the lovely guys at Elliott & Thompson, three of the HH back catalogue of word books—Word Drops, The Accidental Dictionary, and The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities—are now available as a beautiful matching trio of paperbacks. Click through to the Books page here for more information on all three titles.
NEW PODCAST—YES OR BS
It’s also a year since HH spread our wings into podcasting—so for something a little bit new and a little bit different different, head over to yesorbs.com to find out more.
Yes or BS is a new game, blog, and podcast from Paul and the rest of the HH clan, in which the facts and trivia are not always as they seem. What you read or hear might be entirely true, or it might be complete BS—it’s up to you to play the game and find out whether you’re right or not. To keep track of all things Yes and all things BS, track down the website here, and be sure to follow the @yes_or_BS Twitter feed here.
And, as always, keep an eye on the HH Twitter, @HaggardHawks, and your inboxes for more HH news coming very soon.
