Undoubtedly, the august publisher's greatest achievement in its 43-year history.

What ho, people? Yes the Diagram gods have spoken and it has been REVEALED that RuPedagogies of Realness: Essays on Teaching and Learning with RuPaul’s Drag Race was won the 44th annual #DiagramPrize for Oddest book title of the year bit.ly/3FDaoc9

@RiekkiRon @McFarlandCoPub It is FAR more important than the Booker Prize, my dear sir. Welcome aboard!

What ho, chaps? A little heads up as tomorrow AM - yes, tomorrow! - the shortlist for the 44th The Bookseller Diagram Prize will be revealed. Buckle. Up. #diagramprize

Keep the suggestions coming in and if you nominate the eventual winner you will be awarded the traditional and much sought-after "passable bottle of claret". The shortlist is out on 28th Oct!

Our own creative genius @dannyarteruk, whilst in the trenches doing @thebookseller Buyers Guide duty, spotted the upcoming Smugging Jesus Back into the Church. Both a banging Diagram contender and a weird way to bring about the second coming.

And, lo, I went the @thebookseller Rising Stars party last week. My sober report of the proceedings is here: thebookseller.com/comment/its-al…

@FictionFanatic1 @shedworking @thebookseller Also, a little secret, the magic of the interweb: if you see a typo, let us know. Easily fixed!

@FictionFanatic1 @shedworking @thebookseller Late to this, but I would say that The Organ has actually increased its subs team, who have been working EXTREMELY hard with an avalanche of new content, importing nearly 2 decades of old content, new systems and the print mag. It ain't easy.

Is anyone else in #publishing thinking that although the new @thebookseller website looks great and is easy to use, it’s a shame they seem to have sacked all their subs? #Somanytypos

Now @RealRoySchwartz will retain the Diagram crown for a year, or until someone tricks him into saying Mxyzptlk backwards.

Huzzah and congrats to Is Superman Circumcised? which cut through all the competition to claim this year's Diagram Prize!!!

This is it, everyone: Judgement Day. Polls close fort the 43rd Diagram Prize for Oddest Book Title of the Year at midnight. Make your voice heard! bit.ly/3nTSCZ7

The Diagram crossing borders: some coverage in Poland where I hear our odd titles prize is more popular than Robert Lewandowski bit.ly/3oITDT0
