Think you’re not funny? Think again.
This episode shows you how to add humor to your writing without sounding fake or forced. You’ll see how laughter creates stronger connections, makes stories unforgettable, and adds serious appeal to your book.

You’ll pick up simple techniques to spot everyday comedy, use surprise for impact, and layer in humor that feels natural. You’ll also learn how to test your jokes, avoid cultural missteps, and develop your funny side—even if it doesn’t come easy.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • Everyday humor: How to turn real-life mishaps into story gold
  • Page vs. stage: Why writing jokes can be easier than delivering them live
  • Smart sensitivity: Keep humor kind, relatable, and culturally aware
  • Build your funny muscle: Practical ways to practice and sharpen your humor

If you want your readers to laugh, connect, and remember your work, this episode is your guide.
