Garrett joins a number of other online stars in the publishing world: last week alone, new books came out from YouTubers Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg, Tyler Oakley and Zoe “Zoella” Sugg. Those friends are featured in Garrett’s latest expansion beyond YouTube: a book published by Egmont called Stampy’s Lovely Book, which blends cartoons, quizzes, facts, a cake recipe – cake being a recurring feature in Stampy videos – and tips for budding YouTubers. We’re not just collaborators, we’re friends and you can’t fake that,” says Garrett. We met as friends and got into YouTube together. Pretty much everyone I record with regularly, I knew before I or they were YouTubers. “People like the fact that we’re all just friends. Those videos are filmed with a group of friends with their own alter-egos: Ballistic Squid, Lee Bear, Sqaishey, Amy Lee, Rosie and Finnball are household names for Minecraft-mad children, if not to the wider world. It’s nice to do that, but then to step away from it again and go back to sitting in a room making videos.” “It’s nice to step into that world and experience it, and I really enjoyed meeting as many fans as I could one-on-one in person. Then it ended, we got on the train home, and nobody looked twice at us!” he says. “We went to Minecon and for a couple of days you pretend you’re a rock star. Yet Minecon also showed the specific nature of the fame Garrett and his fellow YouTubers attract. ![]()
