Some European Humor



I may write something completely different in the future, but with this book I'm on a dangerous path; I'll try to make you laugh. The book is not long, but hopefully it'll take some time to read it if your laughter prevents you from reading it fast.

I may write something completely different in the future, but with this book I'm on a dangerous path; I'll try to make you laugh. The book is not long, but hopefully it'll take some time to read it if your laughter prevents you from reading it fast.


     Hopefully you'll enjoy reading about when Doc Hooligan came to town to draw against a local boy in the first story: "The Duel". 

     In "And That's How We Came On Top Of Things", you'll learn why there are only ten commandments. This gripping story will no doubt leave you not only flabbered, but also ghasted! 
 
     In "Hoofs and Proofs", the story about the horse that felt trapped in a man's body, will make you rear and neigh! 
 
     The fourth is called "The Lesson". Does the Mayor of Locobano really have a snake's personality? 
 
     In another, "As the Crow Flew Gently Backwards", you'll learn about a young man's encounter with a mature woman, who in this case happens to be a bit…no, I mean a witch! 
 
     The sixth, "From Here to Hanukkah", features a nostalgic elderly lady whose love life catches up with her. 
 
     Learn "How To Fill a Void" when three people have just died simultaneously, but uh oh! There's only one vacancy into heaven! How. Will. It. End? 
 
     "Mr. Flinch Is Coming For Dinner", is future realism (does that genre exist?) about an old lady who defies the authorities just to make organic meatballs for her gentleman caller. True love, isn't it? 
 
In "For No Extra Charge", you'll get to learn about Hyacynthia Blowdiddle and her brief adventure with a devoted taxidermist. 
 
     Oh-oh - in "Snafu In Sector Z", there's a crisis behind enemy line in this military mission in a foreign country; the Colonel's wife's dog is missing! But help has arrived. Major Quacker has flown in to hopefully save the day. 
 
     The "The Fisherman Who Asked The Sea", is a short-short piece that will tell you about the lonely fisherman who dealt with his situation. 
 
    Finally, the last story has a bit of a tragic base. But what's comedy without a serious and slightly tragic foundation? The magic between a boy and his grandfather is described here, in "Learning To Fly".
 
I hope to hear giggles and laughter from the universe. If you like the stories, please write a review!

Creating Your Story Title by Mary Deal

Something writers of multiple stories will experience: Titles may come to you in a flash. Some will take a bit of thinking through. Say you’ve written your first and only story thus far. You may feel you have a great title for that one piece of prose. However, caution should be taken due to lack of experience in titles. You can only know how easy or how difficult choosing a title will be after you’ve written a few stories. For the person who writes many stories or many books, again, choosing a title may come easy, or it may be one of the most difficult aspects of writing. Some writers are unable to start a story unless they have a great title lined up. Then, with that title in mind, they set out to write, only to change the title once they see where the plot and characters lead them. Some authors cannot title a story till it’s written and rewritten for the umpteenth time. Then they decide. Whatever your preference, titles are just as important as the overall story itself...

On Writing Chase Scenes

By Carolyn Howard-Johnson Author of  The Frugal Editor,  the winning-est  in her award-winning HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers This article is excerpted from some editing I did for a writer of experimental fiction when I was on a Greater Los Angeles Writers Society panel writer of any genre can apply these suggestions to the chase, getaway, or high action scene in your script or manuscript before you send it to an agent or publisher or, better still, while you are writing the first draft.  Sometimes even the most fascinating, interesting and irresistible  detail can slow down the forward movement of your story. So as much as writers are told that detail is important, purge as much as you can from your action scenes and put it somewhere else or dribble it into narrative in other places in your manuscript. In the process, ask yourself if your reader really needs to know the color of the protagonist’s eyes. As important as detail is, ...
