Silman-James Press | ISBN 1879505215 | 1st ed (July 1994) | PDF | 2.5 Mb | 191 pages
“ Excellent book for story tellers!
Breaks down all the elements of not just a comedy story, but for any story. Makes it easy to come up with an interesting dynamic between characters and the plot. If you are looking for something to help you be funny with friends, or to tell jokes, the concepts can still be applied, but you’d have to keep your friends there long enough for you to build up a funny story.
Highly Recommended
As a professional screenwriter and teacher of screenwriting, I can testify that this book offers loads of invaluable advice and wisdom about writing comedy. But as an added bonus, it will help you write almost any kind of screenplay. A treasured addition to my shelf of how-to books.
Real tools to build funny
Finally, a book that offers real tools and exercises to help you write humor. After you get the basics, John Vorhaus helps you understand what makes it funny and what slows it down and shows you how to get the laugh instead of just head nods because they reaize you are ironic. I highly reccomend this book for anyone looking to write humor on demand. I would love to see John write a book focused on the Comic Strip and similar short form humor. ”
