S2E7 - NYNJ 7 - Tiffany Greysen

Our interview this week is with the beautiful and amazing Tiffany Greysen. I've had the priviledge of bringing her to Bend, and people still talk about how absolutely phenomenal she was. Tiffany is a writer for Savage Henry and Exotic Magazine. She is a stand up comedian out of Portland, Oregon. You can find her on Instagram and Twitter.

We have a great conversation that veers into a topic of personal safety.  While Tiffany and I talk about this topic from a CIS, White, Het, Fem perspective this is important for everyone.



Here's the the thing. If you are feeling uncomfortable at show, if you are feeling in danger, you need to tell your show runner. If your show runner doesn't care, never work with that show runner again. Fuck 'em.

Thank you again to Tiffany for sitting down with me for the New Year New Jokes writing seminar this year. While I'm thanking people, also thank you to Beers and Business Cards and Craft Kitchen and Brewery for their support!



Tiffany talked about writing every day. I know it's a slog. There are some days you just don't want to get behind the keyboard and try it. But, seriously, try it. So, my writing challenge for you today is all about refining. I want you to go through a piece you have written and see if you can punch it up with metaphors. Metaphoric comparisons like this are a great way to punch up your material. It's always work looking to find a chance.
