What do W. Bruce Cameron, Dave Barry, Garrison Keillor, Will Ferguson, Chuckle Bros., The National Society Of Newspaper Columnists, and The Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop have in common?

Well, obviously for the most part, humour (or in America, humor). They are also all part of my piece on “Adding Some Funny To YOUR Writing” that just came out in the newest issue of WestWord Magazine, the official publication for members of The Writers’ Guild Of Alberta. I wish it were available online, to share copies with everyone - they did a terrific job!!

Compiling tidbits from either seeing many of these successful humorists at events with the latter two organizations, or from interviewing the writers or cartoonists themselves, I put together a few tools to..well, do what the title of the piece suggests!

There’s probably copyright concerns and other legal implications, but if you’d like a copy, fire me off a note, and I’l see what I can do.

Just be prepared to arrange bail if things go sideways...

Chow for now!!

I read it and it is an excellent article! Each one of these talented and successful writers add good, real knowledge on how to write funny! And their stories they shared with you....priceless!
