Who's Publishing What: How to Be Ridiculous: 28 Tips for a Brand-New You!

Tired of being perceived as a mature adult? Eager to shed your professional image?

Heather E. Schwartz’s latest book, How to Be Ridiculous: 28 Tips for a Brand-New You! (Quiet Girl Comedy, 2022), is a “handy humor guide that will help you harness your unique weirdness, lean into your love of Cold War hockey and handle systemic misogyny with newfound confidence.”

Heather suggests readers ”try every trick in the book, or just the ones that match your personal needs. It’s your journey, and it’s all up to you. So… how ridiculous do you want to be?”

Heather’s extensive publishing background includes work for Scholastic, Disney, Sesame Street, Time for Kids, the Smithsonian, National Geographic and NASA. She’s written humor for Knock Knock, Little Old Lady Comedy and the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop blog. She’s also performed comedy as an improviser at The Mopco Improv Theatre in upstate New York.
