We crack open the secret vault of hilarity with Canada's own Dick Wybrow, who has turned the supernatural fiction genre on its head with his gut-busting humor. Picture this: a Canadian humorist penning bestsellers from a garage in New Zealand - and you've got the man of the hour! Dick regales us with his unlikely tale from a solitary childhood to a life brimming with laughter, best-selling books, and a love affair with radio that has listeners in stitches. His mantra of embracing the unconventional illuminates his journey through stand-up comedy, radio escapades, and crafting tales that have readers howling with delight.
Have you ever wondered what a wolf would do if it turned into a human? Dick's series protagonist, Cain, certainly has his paws full trying to navigate this conundrum. We trace the pawprints of Cain's adventure, from the bite that changed his life to his quest for humanity, all amid the uproar of an expanding book series and audiobooks voiced by Hollywood's finest. Dick's writing ritual is as quirky as his stories - early hours, a makeshift office, and a passion that doesn't know the meaning of 'quit.' His success echoes a truth for all entrepreneurs and creatives: love what you do, and do it with discipline.
But hold onto your funny bones, because Dick doesn't just write - he sells. He peels back the curtain on writing content that captures attention like a moth to a flame, sharing tales of radio campaign triumphs and the allure of humor in marketing. The potency of promise and payoff in storytelling, along with savvy strategies for harnessing the clout of Amazon and Facebook, are distilled into wisdom nuggets for aspiring writers and entrepreneurs alike. We wrap up with a salute to Dick's entrepreneurial spirit, a testament to the fact that a relentless drive and a chuckle can propel you to the top of the supernatural comedy food chain.
