Goodreads asked Scott Dikkers:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Scott Dikkers A lot of people, especially my comedy writing students, have been asking me to elaborate on the section on the Character Funny Filter in "How to Write Funny." They want to know more about the most popular comedy character archetypes. I list the 40 most popular in "How to Write Funny Characters," along with guidelines for how to use them, how to make them original, and how to make them leap off the page and into readers' hearts.
