I find it difficult to process comedy and humor, and would like to discover books with well-written humor to study; the way I've been studying known stand-up comedians. Thank you!
I just started posting a “humor” short story series i’m doing almost daily on tiktok and soon substack —<p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@blondynwrites" rel="nofollow">https://www.tiktok.com/@blondynwrites</a><p>It’s titled — Big City, Short Story<p>Not saying it’s top-tier by any means but the writing style is designed to be funny, while being satire, in a ‘Pop Art’ / Almost Dr. Seussian sense.
Terry Pratchett's Disc World comes to mind. It's not generally exuberant, forced humor with maximum-impact punchlines, but more the laid-back, jolly sort. It also has a big fan following.
