Please Do Not Throw Bottles10/11/2024 From the back cover of You Look Good For Your Age:
You Look Good for Your Age is a comedic romp through the unpredictable world of writing, self-deprecation, and the ever-present allure of stand-up comedy. In this uproarious collection, the author—a seasoned novelist with a handful of books (and even more humility)—takes readers behind the scenes of his literary career, one peppered with family fibs, award-winning oil change certificates, and advice from famous authors that always ends with, “Have you considered stand-up?” Whether it’s lamenting the underperformance of his misunderstood novels or dreaming of headlining a nursing home comedy night, the author's wit is as sharp as ever, even as his prospects teeter between YouTube stardom and accordion duets. Blending personal anecdotes, tongue-in-cheek reflections, and a generous serving of laugh-out-loud moments, this book will have you in stitches as the author wades through the existential crisis of whether to keep chasing the Great American Novel or embrace his true calling: making people laugh. Whether you're a writer, a reader, or just someone who’s wondered what it's like to bomb on stage—or in book sales—you'll find something to love in this hilarious, heartfelt, and slightly self-sabotaging collection. Oh, and in case you're wondering, yes, there is a chance you’ll hear Lady of Spain by the end. Coming soon! Comments to: [email protected]
