Starting January 1 I am going to give one joke writing tip each day. I can’t promise they will be effective but they will have worked for me.

2)Write out a favorite joke word for word 1 sentence at a time. After completing each sentence, analyze each word. Why does it work? How do the syllables of the words create rhythm? How do the sentences build to the punchline? What’s the grammar of comedy? #GulManTip #WriteNow
