Judy Carter, guru to aspiring comedy writers and stand-up comics, tells all about the biz of being funny and writing funny in this bright, entertaining, and totally practical guide on how to draw humor from your life and turn it into a career.

Do you think you're funny? Do you want to turn your sense of humor into a career? If the answer is yes, then Judy Carter's The Comedy Bible is for you. The guru to aspiring stand-up comics provides the complete scoop on being--and writing--funny for money.

If you've got a sense of humor, you can learn to make a career out of comedy, says Judy Carter. Whether it's creating a killer stand-up act, writing a spec sitcom, or providing jokes for radio or one-liners for greeting cards, Carter provides step-by-step instructions in The Comedy Bible. She helps readers first determine which genre of comedy writing or performing suits them best and then directs them in developing, refining, and selling their work.

Using the hands-on workbook format that was so effective in her bestselling first book, Stand-Up Comedy: The Book, Carter offers a series of day-by-day exercises that draw on her many years as a successful stand-up comic and the head of a nationally known comedy school. Also included are practical tips and advice from today's top comedy professionals--from Bernie Brillstein to Christopher Titus to Richard Lewis. She presents the pros and cons of the various comedy fields--stand-up, script, speech and joke writing, one-person shows, humor essays--and shows how to tailor your material for each. She teaches how to find your "authentic" voice--the true source of comedy. And, perhaps most important, Carter explains how to take a finished product to the next level--making money--by pitching it to a buyer and negotiating a contract.

Written in Carter's unique, take-no-prisoners voice, The Comedy Bible is practical, inspirational, and funny.

A bit sticky but tolerable
Color: Picotonic Shot
I have both Dr. Melaxin peel shots in black and white rice and saw immediate improvement in the removal of tiny blackheads trapped in tight pores on my nose and around my lip line. It might honestly not get in very deep but it at least helped my skin, everyone is different. I thought my face could never be that improved by anything other than squeezing the crap out of my face and still getting nowhere. So I thought I'd try more of the product line. With this particular product I'm still too new to judge much but on my particular skin it is a bit sticky so I'll use it at night. I wash with the Dr. Melaxin Melting Cleaser, the Cactus toner, then the Dr.Melaxin Cemenrete Cyano Pink Spicule Serum and then this product. I'm 57, I don't have acne issues but I do have a few hyperpigmentation spots if like to fade out a bit if possible and just improve the overall cleanliness and look of my skin. Nothing is a miracle but it's been a noticable improvement so far. I give it 4 stars primarily due to it being kind of sticky on me. One drop goes a long way FYI.

It works!
Color: Picotonic Shot
Love this product!!! I have been using it about 10 days now, and the brown aid spots on my face are down by half, I am absolutely amazed! I did not take before and after pictures, just because I was waiting for it to work on the wrinkles, I had no idea it would work on the brown spots!! Highly recommend this product!!
