Never go for the punch line. There might be something funnier on the way.

I'm really bad at writing jokes.

I do tend to take lines from other lines I like, and then write around them.

There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.

I'm not much of a joke writer.

I haven't got a writer's discipline.

I'm kind of a nerd. A square. And I'm terrible at telling jokes. I always forget the punch line.

I happen to write by hand. I don't even type.
