About the work

A closer look.

How it works: you send me one true thing about a real person. Not a name, a true detail. I write the one joke that lands on them, in 3 days, with a one-line note on why it works. One revision included. Three samples, so you can judge the work before you pay: 1. True thing: my friend has been "this close" to finishing his novel for three years. Joke: He has not written a word, but he has picked the font. Twice. 2. True thing: my friend answers every message in her head, then forgets to send it. Joke: She is the most thoughtful person in the group chat. Nobody in the group chat knows. 3. True thing: my friend never orders fries, because she "isn't that hungry." Then she eats all of mine. Joke: She has never wanted fries. She has also never left one. If any of them made you think of someone specific, that is the one to send.
