And now a gratuitous plug
Now I don’t do this very often, do I? That should count for something. The thing is, the excellent Aussie comedian Wil Anderson is performing in New York (July 12 & 14) and Montreal (July 21-23, 25), and if at all possible you should go see him. Then you should hang around afterward and say, “Hey, Wil, I’m here because Max sent me, and boy am I glad he did,” because you will be.
Wil’s a big name in Australia. He’s also one of the people I trust with my early drafts, which is why you’ll see his name in the Jennifer Government acknowledgments. If you like my stuff, you’ll like Wil.
Wil’s tour dates: Here.

The thing is that I can't really say we have a lot of good stand-up in Sweden, and I think a good comedian could absolutely find some $$ tuck away all the way up north. Tell him to make a visit!

I do want to know what its like being friends with Max Barry though ... do you get to relax in the Aussie sunshine and constantly be amused by your witticisms? Because that could be fun. And I'd get to be surrounded by Aussie accents, which are almost as awesome as American accents.

Makes you think though -- you tried to send up marketing by becoming Maxx Barry for a book (and got pasted for your effort by the humour-deprived), while Will drops an l and becomes famous, on TV and stuff. "Company" by Ma Barry. It just might work...
