The weekend marked a full year of Better Book Titles: 260 books, one fake painting, and over 2.6 million visitors. Thank you so much for sharing the site, and for sending me submissions and kind words about the titles.

I like keeping the blog strictly about literature (and I’ll continue to do so) but I thought today would be a good day to share my own website, one mostly devoted to stand-up comedy and other humor writing.

I’ll try to keep this site and my own as funny as possible!

Thanks again for reading. Happy Fourth of July.
