A special message from Mike ...

To quote Sullivan's Travels, "There's something to be said for making people laugh. You know that's all that some people have? It isn't much, but its better than nothing in this cock-eyed caravan." * I am a freelance writer with humorous leanings living in Los Gatos, CA in a crooked house with my straight wife. * My inspirations range from Larry Gelbart, James Thurber and Robert Benchley to Preston Sturges and Groucho Marx (a tattoo of whom adorns my left arm). * My experience ranges from writer to that of acquisitions editor for start-up magazine. I enjoy the satisfaction of a finished product, regardless of the job. * I am incredibly affable, easy to work with, charming, loyal and can be counted on to drive a getaway car.

Experience
Clients Pompadour Pictures * ArnoCorps * UC Santa Cruz * Doglovers Wine Club * Carivintas Winery * Demand Media * Emmet Labs * Racy Lady * Cultured Being * myhi.com * Dr. Strange Apps * Stophunters.com

Special SkillsWhether it's a creative bio, copy done with a wink or even a clever ransom note, I am always finding the humor in any situation and bringing it out for the reader. Great deal of knowledge of American history, pop culture from 1920's and up, well versed in an array of musical genres and self-proclaimed know-it-all film geek regarding cinema. Other skills not mentioned are private and might get me in trouble with my wife upon public demonstration.
Additional Services- Satire - Wedding speeches - Toastmaster events - Pickup lines (make a good first impression on him or her or both ) - Public Speaking - Class assignment - Criminal confession statements - Letters to Playboy - Newsletter entries - Dear John notes (break the ice and break his heart ) - And MORE
Testimonials "Please, hire him for something. He owes me money." -- Mike's mom. * * * “No more submissions ” --The New Yorker * * * “If this is the pool of talent from which we have to choose nowadays, then I'm going into real estate." --J.E., Penguin Press

Although not a member of the WGA, neither am I a member of the KKK or the NRA, so I think that balances me out pretty well.
