I wrote a little book of comebacks years and years ago. I called it 101 comebacks. It included 120 comebacks but I liked 101 as a better title.
I sold it for $5 in the back of Laugh Maker Magazine.
Then I wrote 101 More Comebacks.
My ad cost $45 a month. I didn't sell enough to cover the cost of the ad. I thought it was cool though.
I've revisited this book over and over. I always thought there was something there. I don't know of any books that just included comebacks for children's entertainers. I didn't want to put anyone down I just want to make people laugh.
The joke is called "Hey Quit Clowning Around" Comebacks for the most commonly heard comments a children's entertainer hears.
So, after a lot of work. I'm sending my version off to a publisher. It's 95 pages. There are probably 1500 jokes in there. It's really tough to edit, after working on one liners for hours, your mind gets really numb.
I have worked, reworked reworded each joke umpteen times. I think it's really funny.
We'll see what a publisher says.
Wish me luck.
