Zen In The Art of Absurdity (Comedic short-stories and essays that will make you want to shove forks through your eyes)
Short-stories are making a comeback!
In "Sounds Like...A Self-Portrait" follow Fern as she makes the agonizing decision whether to "go for it" with Rogers. But will her gas keep them apart?
"Road Rage" shines a light on those idiot drivers, who happen to be driving YOUR car.
"See Dick and Jane Beat The Hell Out of Jack and Jill" is a fun farce that writers everywhere will love.
In "Sleep Walker," see the same story told through 3 separate people. You'll laugh when you see yourself.
"The Tokyo Kens" is an exercise in writing nothing but horrible fiction, but you'll laugh out loud.
Watch Delores have a controlled meltdown in "It's All Just Water Under The Fridge."
"We All Need Traditions" follows Carla's own parents and their annual ritual: her mom always asks for a pink azalea plant for Mother's Day, and her dad, after buying it for her, then mows it down with the lawn mower. Why they never got hobbies, we'll never know.
"That'll Be Seven Lipsticks Please." Meet Sam and his wife. They accidentally end up in Canada. All Sam's wife wants is a bathroom. All Sam wants is someone who understands Canglish. Or Englanadian.
A devoted shoe-lover leaves a strange suicide note in "The Suicide Ranks."
See why living in the south in the wintertime, and being married to a man who picks his ears with his keys is material for comedic fodder in "Radio Shack, Earwax and Toilet Paper."
In the essay "A Justifiable Lack of Initiative," we learn it's okay to under-achieve, and a man's wife drives him to do desperate things in the quest for his own writing space in "Zen In The Art of Absurdity."
