I read that blurb when someone showed me how to find the library on Substack for writers of fiction. I was like, "I found my humans", and since I'm focusing mainly on mystery/noir currently in my writing, I went to that section, and I saw this funny blurb about OTTS. Great hook! I'm not sure I write "funny", but the main character of the first book of my forthcoming mystery series, Sesame Swallow, does have her moments, and at least she makes me laugh - that's a start. Here's an excerpt from the first book: https://sjstone.substack.com/publish/posts/detail/136352900/share-center
More than happy to wait around for your story to come out. I like to laugh. In the meantime, I left you a link so you could take a look at what I have.
Hmmmm it takes a lot for me to giggle I think? But the funniest thing I’ve read in a while was actually an in-progress script about a jester....But I also laughed too hard at the menu (dark humor).
The funniest book I recently read was actually a children’s book! Called Detective Butthead or 「おしりたんてい」in Japanese! It is so ridiculous, but the story is actually funny and interesting! I was not expecting a children's book to actually entertain me. The best part is the detective’s partner is called Mr. Brown! I laughed out loud multiple times throughout. It’s a good series and if you like that sort of humor, I’d say its worth reading to your kids as well 😜!

I haven’t read it in a while, but the funniest book I can think of is “do androids dream of electric sheep.” The book is filled with deadpan humour and absurdity at the situation the characters are in--trying to figure out whether somebody is human or not. Although my wife didn’t interpret it as a comedy at all so maybe I’m just strange
I recently discovered the SPACE TEAM series by Barry J Hutchison... 😂 So far I’ve laughed on almost every page throughout. Oh! And the audiobook performance by Phil Thron is awesome. Highly recommend!
This sounds amazing! I can't wait to experience this. Over the Top Secret is such a great story title. Happy belated birthday, Alexa!

Over the Top Secret sounds amazing!! Lately I've been laughing at everything Meg Oolders writes over on her Substack - Stock Fiction.
Ahoy! We were discussing secret doors, so just following up. 😬
I usually say that comedies are not funny but I really liked Hot Fuzz. Just the right sprinklings of everything.
