It outlines a basic structure so easy to use that anyone with a decent grasp of the english language can write a humorous skit or scene. Though, for my money, I would also get “Comedy writing step by step.” It grasps far deeper than Vourhous’s basic outline, and is very comprehensive. Use “Comic Toolbox” as a quick reference, but use “Step by Step” as a guide.

I’d recommend this book for the laughs alone, but I can also recommend it as the fount of writing wisdom it entails.
