    I published a humor book! "How to Marry a Finnish Girl"

    I wasn't sure who to share this with, but I thought my online comedy family would be interested...

    In September Finland's oldest publisher, Gummerus, is publishing my first book: HOW TO MARRY A FINNISH GIRL: Everything You Wanted to Know about Finland that Finns Won't Tell You"

    It's a comedy book. It's written like a fake tourist guide about Finland, but it's essentially written for the Finns.

    That's really great! That's a nice thing to have under your belt. The cover looks pretty snazzy, too, and that's always a bonus.

    Congrats, but you ripped off the cover from my book, "How to get groped by black dudes".

    Thanks!! Yah, I wanted a eyebrow-raising cover, and I think the illustrator and I achieved that.

    Sure. It's called Turn That $#!+ Off! It's a social commentary (comedic, of course) on politics, sports, and entertainment. I also throw in some previously published things I wrote on my blog back in the day. There's definitely an influence of Lewis Black, George Carlin and Jon Stewart in my comedy.
