Funny, How I Got Here: Uproarious Glimpses Into One Man's Survival Through Life's Twists & Turns

J. Kevin Morris

4.9/5 (21145 ratings)

Description:Everyone faces danger, runs into challenge, endures inconvenience, and encounters humor, embarrassment, and silliness in life—but J. Kevin Morris seems to have claimed more than his share of these things. And no one remembers them as precisely or as vividly as Morris does, nor writes about them as powerfully, vivaciously, colorfully . . . and, most of all, as laugh-out-loud funny as he does.“I’m a great fan of remembering, so I write a lot about the past, about memories of unique experiences,” Morris says. “But I like to do it with humor. Even when—and sometimes especially when—the memory is a difficult one, humor helps. I like what TV host/comedian Jimmy Fallon said: “Making people laugh is something I learned from my father who always said, ‘There’s nothing so painful in life that couldn’t be laughed at—eventually.’ Now, this may not be true 100% of the time,” Morris concludes, “but I find it to be true often enough to persuade me to focus on humor in my writing.”Between the covers of Funny, How I Got Here, Morris puts his money where his mouth is. And between bouts of belly laughs, you may find yourself wondering how this man ever made it to today still (more or less) sane.While the twenty chapters in Funny, How I Got Here are arranged chronologically, the reader is advised that (s)he need not read them in order; on the contrary, to read them according to interest or personal appeal is the suggested strategy.“Some of my stories are about pretty simple things, but I’ve tried to infuse my writing of them with enough humor and detail to make an interesting read,” Morris explains. “But the reader may find the ‘grander,’ more flamboyant episodes a bit more interesting choice for first reads. That’s fine. If I’ve done my job well, they’ll come back around to reading every story.” Heck, you may even find yourself persuaded by some of these jaw-dropping escapades to believe---if you don't already---in miracles. And you can bet dollars, donuts, or chalk that, in the reading of Morris's memories, you'll rediscover one or two of your own. So buckle up, my friend, and . . . PREPARE TO LAUGH YOURSELF SICK.Read less Report incorrect product information.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
