thick-card covered book, 5½" x 8½" 164 pages Brad Ashton demonstrates the techniques of gag writing and gag-switching - making the most of a situation or theme; he shows how to link one-liners into a comic routine; how to write satire and visual comedy; how to devise formats and characters for situation comedy - and sustain them through a series. He has been writing and selling comedy for thirty years, and runs a comedy-writing school. His advice is lucid, authoritative and funny.
