So as part of my shameless self-promotion, I occasionally reflect on pop culture and the particular entries that have influenced my writing. In case it’s not obvious, I’m kind of weird. A lot of entries are about cartoons, or comic books, or comic book movies. I tend to like comedy more than tragedy because real life seems tragic enough already. But I out of all the things I like and that have influenced my sense of humor and writing, Monty Python may be the weirdest. May be. Jury’s still out.
