Humor Me

Need a little more humor in your life?

Hopefully, this newsletter can help.

I’m a writer who focuses on humor and my newsletter combines those two topics.

What to expect:

• 1-2 emails from me a month that include:

  • A monthly email with things that have been making me laugh (including books, shows, and short-form humor) as well as writing-related resource links like industry news and submission opportunities. It’s like Oprah’s Favorite Things, but funnier.

  • A second bonus email that will cover things like deeper dives into book/freelance/humor writing topics and Q&As with humor writers. (Sometimes I may not get this bonus email out because of, you know, life, but I will when I can).

  • If you only want some of these emails, you can adjust your subscription preferences in Substack to indicate that.

When you sign up, I’ll also send you a list of 27 funny books (for adults and kids) that I recommend.

About Me:

I’m a writer who frequently writes humor and parenting pieces for places like New Yorker Daily Shouts, McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, and Parents.

Some of my most popular pieces include:

• “William Carlos Williams Poems for Introverts” on McSweeney’s

• “Would-You-Rathers for Parents During Quarantine” (co-written) on McSweeney’s

• “Thank You for Calling the Writer Envy Helpline” on Electric Lit

And I wrote a book:

My humorous advice book for introverted parents, Babies Don’t Make Small Talk, So Why Should I? came out in 2021. It makes a good gift for the new or expecting parent in your life.
