If you're new to this page, start at the bottom, this is the last entry.

This blog tells the story of my journey towards doing stand-up comedy for the first time. When I wrote it I was writing in the form of a diary, recording both mundane events alongside my attempts to prepare for having a go at something I'd really always wanted to do.

I published it as a bit of fun and as something to serve as a bit of an extra to my main blog. However it's popularity is growing and since I published the last entry the hit rate is starting to rival my current active blog. There has even been talk of turning it into a radio show. I think that would be difficult at the moment but it's something for the future perhaps.

I've also had emails from fellow stand-ups who have all said nice things about it.

So, as I said, start at the bottom and work your way up. It's pretty much a warts and all journey towards my first ever gig.

If you're thinking of doing stand-up yourself my advice is simple: FUC#ING DO IT!

Yours Sincerely

NM
