3/08: I'm in poor health, which limits my posting; MG addicts can check out my Beatles group blog, Hey Dullblog.


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!

No gray matter? Not so!

I'm sure many of you are wondering if I am in a persistent vegetative state. This blog to the contrary, I am not. Writing massive amounts on the second college novel (it's funny I think), and getting the new site HTML'ed up as fast as I can...

More evidence that humor doesn't sell...

In honor of World Book Day (who knew?), Amazon.com has released a list of its 2004 bestsellers, broken out by country. Guess what was #1 in the U.S.?

Jules in McSweeney's!

As if in silent rebuke for forgetting to respond to his last email, friend Jules Lipoff had a list piece up at McSweeney's last Friday; it's called, "Ways In Which She Could've Blinded Me With Science" and it's funny.

Blog alert!

Okay, so, I was away, but now I'm back and I come bearing a linke. (I have just decided that this spelling will henceforth be standard on this blog.) Yale Record refugee--and possibly ex-Fugee--Lee Tyler has a new blog. Humor pieces, musings, fol-de-rol. Check it out!

Sorry I've been a little light on the blogging lately, by the way. I've been writing on books instead. And formulating plans for Mikegerber.com 2.0, which I think you're going to like...
