“The short version is that I started an internet diary a long, long time ago (six years!) because I was bored with my job. I figured I would write a few funny things a few times a week until I had enough material to do stand-up. After two or three weeks, I emailed it to some friends. They emailed it to other friends, and more people started reading. Eventually, I realized that stand-up was scary and it would be much easier to just keep writing this stuff at work.” PeopleWritingYearsLongTwoEnoughWould BeJobsThreeReadingStuffWeekMaterialsInternetEasierSixLong TimeScaryI RealizedVersionsBoredDiariesLong Time AgoFunny ThingsHad Enough Author:Jason Mulgrew
“The book is not a cut-and-paste job. Yeah, I have a blog, but the material in the book is all new. The blog deals with my life now, whereas as the book starts a few years before my birth until right about the end of junior high. And yes, I am contractually obliged to mention this as much as possible (each time I do, HarperCollins sends me a free pizza).” YearsBookEndsJobsDealsCuttingMaterialsBirthYeahObligedJuniorsBlogsPizzaJunior High Author:Jason Mulgrew
