Writing humor: the rule of three, etc.

Today over at Andy Hollandbeck's Logophilus blog, I talk about writing humor. What to do, what not to do, what the great humorists of history had to say on the subject, and why The Rule Of Three works the way it does.

I also tell a joke or two, followed by a dissection of them, explaining why they are funny.

And every word is solid gold.

Pop on over to give it a read.
