Does anyone write clean comedy into their works anymore? I need recommendations and some help.
Whew! The last two years have been… (behemoth understatement) rough!
I want to hear from you guys. I need to find some comedic inspiration. To know how you weave humor into your stories. Mine needs some.
I have a tendency to write tense scenes and I need to be able to break that cadence up with some genuine humor. I don’t mean snarkiness or snide belittling remarks, but something that is laugh-out-loud funny.
There is so much bad news in life, I think it is important that we include a little levity in our works to break up the tension. Philippians 4:8 tells us to pursue a mindset that seeks the positive things out, which does not imply ignoring the evil done under the sun, but balancing our thinking with things of good report.
Humor is a release of tension, and I feel we need some of that.
Would any of you be willing to share a book title of something funny you have read, or a passage in something you wrote that you found comical? No judgment here.
