&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Author, comedy writer, and columnist James Breakwell started writing long before he became an internet sensation through his &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/XplodingUnicorn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;@XplodingUnicorn&lt;/a&gt; Twitter handle. In high school, he shared his humorous stories with classmates and then wrote for his college newspaper, testing out his comedic approach and style. Breakwell&amp;#39;s first job working for a newspaper was short-lived, as he quickly discovered he disliked journalism and professional writing. He began blogging and building an audience through social media, sharing his upbeat, but pessimistic (and hilarious) views on parenting. As a father of four girls, Breakwell found that the stories and jokes he shared were very relatable, resulting in a loyal following. He quickly went viral when Buzzfeed, a global news source, did a feature article that shared links to his most popular posts. This was his breakout moment, landing him global media coverage, an agent, and a book deal, and he now has over one million followers on Twitter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
