Haha, well to my defense this was written before 2015.
What are some examples of writers with one published book?

Here is a list I found[0]:
- "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Brontë,
- " The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde,
- "Gone with the Wind" by Margaret Mitchell,
- "The Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger,
- "The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath
But maybe there are other singleton examples that are just as intuitive?
A shed has a single room, so the set of rooms is a singleton? A
unicycle has a single wheel, so the set of wheels is a singleton? Every
country has a single capital, so the set of capitals are always a
singleton by necessity?

On a sad note, I also would like to add that "The set of queens of England" is now not a "singleton set", but an "empty set".

I rewrote the example about the queens of England and decided to remove the second example.
The example with the king/queen is good because the king/queen is one by definition (the one with the capital is good too, but it is conceptually very similar to the one with the one about the kings)
Thanks @phikal, for the suggestions.
