--in the head office


TARGET AUDIENCE: 
seekers of clean humor

INTERVIEW...
INTERVIEWER: Where do you get your ideas for your puns?
DL: I get my ideas from the spoken word, written word, and exploring the many possibilities of a word. Most of these words have clever sound-alikes or multiple meanings.  Like matador sounds like mat-a-door; or the binding may refer to a pre-nup or a book. 


TESTIMONIAL: 
Just like an experienced pilot, these jokes land smoothly every time. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (G. Nevins - Parañaque City, Philippines)

DL: Originals.
INTERVIEWER: What can you say if someone wrote a joke that is similar to yours?
DL: I am fully aware that I explored the comedic possibilities of the keywords of each joke before writing them down. If another has written a joke similar to mine, most likely we connected to a similar source. 

TESTIMONIAL: 
This collection showcases Dominique's prolific creative mind. She's a pun factory! Kudos to you, Dominique, and keep them coming!

DL: The puns are classified as the genre of clean wit and clever humor.

TESTIMONIAL:
Dominique’s book reminds of me jokes I would crack to my younger sister when we were kids. The lines evoke child-like wit, a form of entertainment that is lost — and very much welcome — to the busy and anxious adult mind. I foresee this book as a useful read while bonding with children.

English language writers who wish to add zing to their writing

INTERVIEW...
INTERVIEWER: Why did you accept the challenge to write a pun a day for 365 days?
DL: After having my fill of retelling jokes that are not mine, I believed it is my time to create my own jokes by merely playing with words. Although I outgrew knock-knock jokes, I used riddles to compose my puns. As for writing once a day for a year, I felt it is a reachable goal and worth looking forward to do each day.

TESTIMONIAL:
If you think puns are pun-ny heres the book for you! 365 puns and brain teasers to keep you and your family occupied every day of the year.
