It Was the Worse of Times, It Was the WORSE of Times
What a year. Well, I hope you have your health. I guess that's all that matters, right? I spent the summer pivoting and changing plans, like everyone else. Taught more this year and focused on producing books. Couldn't do any book events, per se, but I did some remote things and spoke "at" the Norman Rockwell Museum, Milford Readers & Writers Festival, and locations everywhere including South Korea from my living room without pants.
I want to share this first book, The Elements of Stress and the Pursuit of Happy-ish in this Current Sh*tstorm, and I honestly believe it can help. I say things can’t get much worse but they can get much funnier. Written with famed New Yorker cartoonist, Michael Shaw, it includes over fifty of our cartoons. Bursting with timeless advice, it’s essential reading for these times, and we kept the page count down so it's priced less than a pumpkin-flavored latte grande.
