Jon calls this "a work of genius"--and I had to pay him almost nothing for the blurb. More mystery and mayhem in the Ivy League, mixing my world with real history to create something entertaining.
I've combed my archives to create this collection of my magazine humor. From The Yale Record to The New Yorker, the best of the pre-Barry years is in here.
My first non-parodic novel is now available! It's school like it ought to be: loud, eventful, and full of swearing!
I'm probably going to Hell for this C.S. Lewis spoof.
The ultimate Harry Potter parody. Three novels, 25 foreign editions, over a million copies sold--it's too much to list here, but you can read excerpts and buy the books at Barrytrotter.com!

post a commentThough not a guarantee, the following advice was provided by a member of the Iowa State Patrol:
Before the patrolman can even put his/her lights on, pull over far enough so that the cop can stand safely on the shoulder without fear of being struck by a tractor-trailer. Then admit guilt immediately. Acknowledge exactly how fast you were going. This typically results in a warning instead of an actual fine.
This worked, once, as I was flying 70 in a 55...plus the crying helped too, I think.
