Whether you want to share a laugh with others or just enjoy a good laugh yourself, you should get acquainted with shaggy-dog stories. If you’re among those scratching their heads and asking “what's a shaggy-dog story,” I'll let the dictionary answer you: "a shaggy-dog story is a long drawn-out anecdote with an absurd anticlimactic punch line." With all due respects to my dictionary, I define them as funny.
Many of the thirty-three shaggy-dog stories in this chapbook have been published previously in periodicals and newsletters. However, this is the first time that they have been gathered together in a single collection.
Of course it is hoped that you will enjoy the humor and that each joke will bring a chuckle to your lips or at least a contented, “Oh no.” But, who can resist a shaggy-dog?
Shadows Ink Publications is a division of Shadow Poetry. Experience the quality!

Customer Reviews:
• "Loved this little book. Great quick reading. A chuckle waiting in every story. Great "waiting around time read".
Leave it available in plain sight just to pick up and browse thru. Witty. Humorous." - EJM Shaw
• "Enjoyed the book. The writing reminds me of Garrison Keillor's style." - Nancy Schubering
• "I enjoyed the book thoroughly and could not put it down until I had finished every story. Each story gave me a
smile, a chuckle, or even a laugh. One big bonus is that I now find myself looking at time worn sayings or expressions in
a new light .......looking for a twist that would turn them into something new and humorous. This book is a creative gem." - Don Tuskey
