Various Happenstances of Seth
For the past few years, the
best place to find details about my life has been my blog, which
I posted on my
WSO page. I will leave the archives up there for now, but since
March of 2005, I've been making my new blog updates right here on
RisingPun.com:

What Seth Brown is saying about Seth Brown
I am a freelance humorist specializing
in writing, and a freelance writer specializing in humor. I have
written columns for the Providence Journal, Williams Record, Berkshire
Advocate, and GenerationJ.com. I appear frequently in the Washington
Post's Style Invitational, and infrequently in random other places
like the Warwick Beacon and the Patriot Ledger. I have written impromptu
rhyming replies which I gave as floor speeches in response to public
policy debates by various political illuminati. My first book, Think
You're The Only One?, was recently published.
I inhale and exhale humor, unwilling and
perhaps unable to live without it. I am a wordsmith, bending language
to my will, oft in service of the aforementioned humor goal. I enjoy
eating and gaming with friends. I am fluent in Pig Latin and know
how to say "Your dog is in the microwave" in five languages.
I gave up piano for the kazoo, and formed a classical kazoo quintet
which gave a command performance of Pachelbel's Canon. I have an
unnatural fondness for fondue, and an insatiable penchant for punnery.
I, unlike Bob Dole, don't mind writing in the first person occasionally.

| Huzzah, the end of another
Internet self-summary. I wonder if some of the famous names needed
explanation. Well, Dan Savage is a widely syndicated sex advice columnist,
Gene Weingarten is the Washington Post's humor columnist, Pat Buchanan
is a former presidential candidate, and if you don't know who Dave
Barry is, I'm not going to tell you. |
