- Okay okay.
I'm so excited to be making this video.
I have my notes here in front of me
so I don't forget anything.
But let's just go. Let's just do this.
Announce things. (sighs)
Literally about ten minutes ago,
I received this package from my publisher
and inside it is the first ever mock up of my book.
By the way, I wrote a book.
It's called Doing It.
It's out on the sixth of April this year,
and it's about sex and relationships.
Okay, so this is the official cover reveal.
You get to see the cover.
(sings ascending beats)
(laughs)
I'm obsessed with it.
Do you like it? Do you like it?
Let's go through it.
I just love it so much.
I love the colours.
I think the pink and the blue just stand out so much.
And the Let's Talk About Sex thing
is like I'm being censored, (moans)
cuz I'm saying naughty things.
(moans) God forbid.
I love the neon for the title,
because it kind of reminds me of sex shops.
Symbolism. Metaphors.
Oh, there's my head.
My face is there too.
That's kind of funny.
So I knew I was receiving this today,
but I just assumed that it was going to be the cover
but with like blank pages inside
just as like a mock up.
But, no.
My actual book with everything is on the inside.
You can't see that.
No. (laughs)
(screams) I've written a book.
This is me. I wrote this.
This is so weird. (sighs)
(screams)
Okay, I'll tease you with the contents page.
You ready? (gasps) Good.
A whole section on being single.
One last tease. You ready?
(pages flipping)
So now the book cover has been revealed.
I can tell you about two really exciting things.
The first one is this.
(squeals)
We have produced a Doing It branded toiletries case thing.
So it says Doing It Hannah Witton
and then Let's Talk About Sex on the other side.
There are a limited number of these
and you can win one by pre-ordering the book.
And I'm gonna to tell you how to do that now.
(clears throat) Need to consult my notes.
So you have to send your proof of purchase,
so you just forward on your email receipt,
to this email address: doingit@hachettechildrens.co.uk.
So send your email receipt thing to that email address
along with the delivery address
that you want it to be sent to.
It can be a receipt from any retailer,
so you can pre-order it anywhere
and they will accept all of them.
It is UK and island only. Sorry.
There are more terms and conditions and I will leave a link
to where you can read them all in the description.
They will be sent out separately from the book
and they're going to be sent out around publication,
so you should receive it about two weeks after publication,
which is the sixth of April.
My book comes out on the sixth of April.
If you have already pre-ordered the book,
then you can still get one of these.
Just go into your email, find that receipt,
and email it to us along with your delivery address
and you will get one.
I love it.
And I'm going to keep my condoms
and menstrual cup inside here.
That seems appropriate.
Also loads of you from outside of the UK
have been tweeting me about how you can hold of my book,
and I am happy to tell you that my book is now up
on the book depository.
And the book depository is a website
where you can go buy books
and they do free worldwide shipping.
Link in the description.
Oh my god. I'm so excited.
I need to find a place, put my book,
so it's in private place
and I can see it and just stare at it all the time,
like (gasps) I made this.
I wrote this. (gasps)
The other really exciting thing that I can announce today
is I'm going on tour.
(squeals) Oh my god.
This isn't going to be a usual book tour
of going to book shops and signings.
No no no.
This is going to be a tour, like I'm putting on a show.
It's an evening event.
There are tickets.
It'll be in theatre type venues,
and you sit down and you watch me do stuff on stage.
I'm terrified.
First of all, the tour is called
Doing It Live with Hannah Witton.
Yes. I know exactly what it sounds like.
It is not a sex show,
but there will be adult themes throughout.
The tour is happening a week after publication,
and I'm doing three shows.
One in London at Bush Hall on the 11th of April.
One in Birmingham at the Glee Club on the 12th of April.
And then one in Manchester
at the Academy Two on the 13th of April.
I'm pretty sure that's in the Easter holidays,
so I hope you can make it.
The show is 14 plus.
I'm really sorry.
If you're under 14, you can't come.
But, I also know that the majority of my audience
are over 18, so there shouldn't be an issue.
But if you are under 16, so if you're 14 or 15,
then you are going to need to bring
an adult with you to accompany you.
These aren't my rules. These are the venue's rules.
I'm sorry.
For each show there's going to be
a limited number of VIP tickets.
What does a VIP ticket get you, Hannah?
So, you get entry to the show, obviously,
and they'll be a pre-show meet-and-greet with moi.
So you get to come back stage
and we can hang out before the show
and just chat and whatever.
Maybe get pizza.
I'm not sure yet. It'll be chill.
And you'll also get a laminated VIP thing,
to be like I'm VIP, check me out.
So there's a limited number of those,
and then the rest of the tickets
are just normal seated tickets.
Come see the show.
Grand.
So, how do I get tickets?
Tickets are going on sale Monday sixth of February.
That is next Monday at 10 a.m.,
and you can get them from myticket.co.uk,
and I'll leave a link
in the description to the specific page
for the Doing It With Hannah Witton tour.
Can I call it a tour? It's like three dates.
It's a tour.
I'm calling it a tour.
My first ever tour.
I'm terrified, by the way.
If you want to know a bit more about what you can expect
if you get tickets to my tour, basically it will be me
and potentially another special Youtuber guest
havin' a chat about sex and relationships, telling stories.
I'll be reading extracts from my book.
They'll be audience interaction with a Q and A
and games and things.
And I just really want to put on a good show for you.
I am very excited, but also terrified
of being on stage for so long.
Okay, to round up this video.
This is my book cover.
This is my book.
Doing It by Hannah Witton.
Out on the sixth of April.
You can pre-order it now.
If you live in the UK or island,
you can send your pre-order receipt
to doingit@hachettechildrens.co.uk,
and you can get (gasps) one of these.
Isn't that exciting?
Also, I'm going on tour, 11th, 12th, 13th of April.
London, Birmingham, Manchester.
Tickets will be on sale on Monday,
the sixth of February at 10 a.m.
Did I remember everything?
I think I remembered everything.
I'm so excited and I'm sweating.
Why did I wear black, Hannah.
I know why I wore black
is because I wanted the colours of the book
to stand out against me.
And also, I just wanted to say a massive thank you
to all of your support so far.
Everyone's tweets, getting really excited about the book
when you tweet me saying that you've pre=ordered it,
or how excited you are.
Oh my god.
You don't know what that does to me.
And I am really bad at being sincere.
I can't, I find it really difficult
to be like you mean so much to me.
I have this wall of Britishness up.
The sarky thing kind of often creeps in
and I'm just like (groans) can't be genuine and nice.
(moans) So, I'm trying here.
Thank you.
Thank you from the bottom of my stone cold British heart.
Enough mushy feelings. (pretend hurling)
Alright. Thank you guys so much.
I hope you enjoyed this little announcement video
and it's answered some of your questions.
Please give it a thumbs up, if you're excited,
as excited as me.
Oh my god.
I will be tweeting on Monday
when the tickets for my tour go live, so don't worry.
If you follow me on twitter, I will remind you.
And I'll see you guys soon.
Bye.
(soft electronic music)
- [Children In Song] Yeah!
