Showering some April Humor

(download)

 

Welcome to another episode of Broadly Speaking!  This April brings you reflections on humor from women who write it well. 

 

Hostess Trisha J. Wooldridge speaks with Jaleta Clegg, Tracy S. Morris, and Justine Graykin about the ins and outs of writing humorous speculative fiction.

 

 

In the first interview, Jaleta shares with us how humor makes things less scary, how writing keeps her sane, and how absolutely important chocolate is to the writing process.

 

The second interview teams up Tracy and Justine to talk about how funnier they feel on paper, how writing humor is like cooking, and how to keep an interview going when life - and dogs - want a piece of the action.
