My fifth open-mic stand-up: Delicious peaches and feeling understood

Several people from the audience said they liked the second part of this performance, saying it spoke to them, or something like that.

I should be writing my next book, with the deadline for my first draft approaching, but I had the idea for these bits and couldn’t resist trying them.

It’s funny that my first attempt, only a few months ago, took me months to prepare. This one I decided this morning to try. I have a long way to go, but that’s the value of practice and rehearsal.

I’d been playing with the ideas for a couple weeks and asked a friend on a phone call that morning if he thought they were worth trying.

He said to break a leg and I went for it.
