Humor lives in the gap between the ridiculous and the real. It's the humorist who can wedge themselves firmly in that gap and tell the rest of the world what they find. It's not a gift; it's not innate, it's something anyone can learn and use in their own work. Many writers don't realize there is a formula to humor, and so they don't attempt it.
In this Teach Me How seminar, you'll learn seven techniques to finding humor in almost every situation (including the ones you're not supposed to), and the techniques professionals use to "write funny" without resorting to tired clich�s and stereotypes.
