And Here's the Kicker: Conversations with 21 Top Humor Writers on their Craft and the Industry Quotes

“Interviewer (Mike Sacks): Many of the readers of this book weren't born when you started writing humor. In fact, many of the readers' grandparents hadn't yet been born. If anyone in this book is entitled to give young humor writers advice, it's you. Irving Brecher: I would say that if you think you're funny, then do it. As long as people genuinely respond to what you produce, keep at it. If their laughs seem genuine, keep writing. And don't stop. Never stop. On the other hand, if nobody likes what you create, well...find another profession. Like interviewing.”
