I feel like if I were asked to be funny on command, I would fail; yet I can slip zingers in when no one is expecting it, on almost any topic, and that's my form of funny.

Humor is not - or has not been- one of my long suits. Maybe its time to open that door a little more.

Heather is such a delight! I look forward to checking out Kindness Magnet (great title). One thing, though: It was Eleanor Roosevelt who said it, not Wayne Dyer (it drives me bananas when a woman says/does something great and, over time, it's attributed to a man (because patriarchy). xo

Thank you Heather and CK, this is a great interview. I love these introspective questions because they help to see where, or who, our ‘imprint’ comes from.

I appreciate that the funny aspects of your writing may come, in part, with the editing process. As a reader that gives me comfort as well as a nod to more edits - it doesn’t necessarily have to flow the first time!

An awesome new feature CK! Your questions are perfect because they are very open-ended allowing Heather to explore and us to be entertained. Will check out her Substack.

I like that you went with Funny AF Women. I also liked Heather coming up with alternatives to what it might be. I thought maybe Funny and Feisty Women. would fit. I can't tell jokes either, because I know how it ends and can't stop laughing enough to get the punchline out. Wit and wordplay makes me laugh.

Loved it. I can't tell a joke either - my brain sabotages itself and forgets the punchline - but I love nothing better than writing humorous dialogue.

Delightful. "Bloody hell" is pretty hardcore for us Brits. As forf***, aside from a few very funny people it seems to be the go to word for people who would like to be thought of as funny, which is not the same thing
