This companion post is an attempt to collect a list of women who are funny right now in that great big improv room known as Twitter. Not trusting that I would know all the funny women (who could?) I crowd sourced to compose the list. Please add more in comments and I will update the list. You can also follow them on my twitter list Funny Women of Twitter.

Oh, my goodness! What a great list to be included on -- thank you so much. You humble me. And that's not easy to do! ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! What a nice group of ladies to be between!
ReplyDeleteCan you be on this list if you're a guy?
ReplyDeleteAsking for a friend.
@Linda of course! You are one funny lady!
ReplyDelete@Jill thanks for coming by! And for your humor every day!
@Jonas not by definition, but just the other day I was thinking "why don't we have a men's history month so that I can do this list for guys?" So I'm gonna make a list just for men and track you down to get that friend's name. Then we can have a race to see WHO makes their list longest first. I've gotta say that not many women have had their names submitted for this... Maybe a little competitive spirit will liven things up.
I'm still very appreciative of your guest post while I was in Europe last year. You are the best!!!!
