Schrödinger’s Boys, And A Workshop I Liked

The Weekly Lately #047

Dear friends, family, fans and President@WhiteHouse.gov,

I have a new piece up at The Hard Times, just click the image below to read it. Quite happy with the guy in the piece “declin[ing] to say where he was or where he could be found…” bit. Have a few other pieces I’m working on at the moment, hopefully those find a home. Either way they will be here, in this newsletter, one way or another.

I just took a humor writing workshop with Luke Burns. I recommend you do the same, if you’re at all interesting in writing short humor. It was great to have some deadlines, and to share drafts with other writers. I emerged with three pieces I’m pretty pleased with.

Luke is a great humor writer himself, and his workshop - I did three Tuesdays, I think it ran about two and a half hours in the evening, via Zoom — was worth it. Good way to get your foot in (the foot-powered writing machine?) and get writing, particularly if you are currently procrastinating. Being accountable to other writers is a great way to push yourself over the finish line with ideas. Highly recommend, so check it out if you’re interested!

Hope you’re having a great summer, and thanks as always for reading my stuff! Share this with a friend who enjoys comedy, won’t you? They can subscribe below. Please do it. They took my son.
