Amy Barnes has words at sites like McSweeney’s, Robot Butt, Funny or Die, Botnik Studios, The Dot, The Higgs Weldon, The Cooper Review and The Giggle Guide. One of her accidental humor writing goals is to write for sites with “The” in the title. Southern suburbs like where she lives don’t really have stand-up opportunities. She does appear daily in school car and grocery check-out lines. Her kids think she’s funny, especially when they need money or a chauffeur. The grocery store cashier, not so much.
