I'm a humor writer, so I don't always present myself in the best light.
I don't laugh that much, but I do like humorous books, and I like to entertain readers that way.
My humor is channeling everything through my brain. For example, when I talk about something, it's how Richard Lewis feels about it. I'm a storyteller. I do a lot of free association.
