| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | It is a straightforward workbook approach to comedy writing as creative problem solving. Offers tools of the trade to writers, comics and anyone else who wants to be funny. Among these indispensable tools are clash of the context, tension and release, the law of comic opposites, the wildly inappropriate response and the myth of the last great idea. |
