The Comedy Writer is a 1998 novel by American filmmaker Peter Farrelly.[1][2]
Plot
The story revolves around Henry Halloran, a young man who quits his sales job in New England and moves to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of becoming a comedic screenwriter. Henry's pursuit is an arduous one, involving many humiliating rejections, low-paying waitstaff jobs to pay the bills, and a grating, unwanted female roommate.
Critical reception
Publishers Weekly, "Farrelly's taste for slapstick and scatological humor will either delight or offend, according to the reader's taste."[1]
Kirkus Reviews, "A winner, nicely skewering some of the weirder elements of life in lotusland, though not as black-witted and biting as some other recent Hollywood fiction."[2]
