Million Words Writing Challenge

from The Funny Muscle Podcast · host Mike Lukas and Chris Stiffler

Chris travels to Dallas for this one. He joins Mike's comedy office hours on Wednesday at the Dallas Comedy Club to workshop material with students. They talk about crafting comedy bits in a group setting. They also chat about Mike's journey to improve his writing using a challenge: The Ice Bucket Writing Challenge which involves writing Hemingway-like prose or taking an ice bath. (Kidding! Though such prose would look like “I took the bucket of ice. It chilled me to the bone. But a man must endure. A man must prevail.”).  Mike's challenge involved writing 1,000,000 words.  There's great advice in this one for new comedy writers looking to develop better writing habits.
