Hi! I’m Scott Johnson. Author. Reader. Dad. Husband. Goofball.

I’m here to build a community of humor-reading aficionados. And then manipulate that community into buying my books. (See below.)

Hang out with me if you want some funny book recommendations, reviews and reading lists. Funny fiction, humorous memoirs and hilarious essays (like my book! See below.)

I’ll also be sharing tips on publishing, writing, and author life experiences. Occasionally, I’ll be reminding you to buy my books. (See below.)

I hope to see you around!

Scott

Hear what readers* are saying about

“Essays Out of Left Field”

"The author's language is a mellifluous river, meandering through the landscape of the human condition. Thought-provoking metaphors cascade like gentle waterfalls, inviting readers to wade into the depths of self-reflection. The narrative rhythm echoes the heartbeat of a collective consciousness, pulsating with the cadence of our shared joys and sorrows."
