Biographie de l'auteur

Mike Blake was forced to resort to humour when faced with school bullies in his younger years. Being smaller than average in size he developed a repartee of one-liners and put-downs which enabled him to defeat larger more dim-witted opponents. His victorious experiences led him to develop a fascination for the history of comedy and humorous insults. Mike is a freelance writer living in Brighton, Sussex.
