Funny Things Are Everywhere

by Lilah Suzanne

Am I funny? Well, I was named funniest girl in my fourth grade end of year superlatives. If that’s not a ringing endorsement I don’t know what is.

I do think I am, and I also think the book is funny, but the risk with humor is often taking the chance of it not quite landing with everyone the way it’s intended to. Maybe that’s why there aren’t that many rom coms in romance, a genre that tends to rely heavily on drama and angst. There’s nothing wrong with drama and angst, of course! I certainly read my fair share. But humor tugs on the heartstrings in a different way, a sometimes more subtle way, and I think it can be easier to dismiss it as less meaningful, just because we’re laughing at it. But really important stories and moments can be funny ones, and characters that stick with us are often the ones that makes us smile.

I think readers will recognize Spice as a romantic comedy, and like any good rom com, I hope they come away from Benji and Simon’s story with warmth and affection, and if all I can contribute to the world in any small way is more joy and laughter, than that is more than enough for me.

I feel like I should end this with a joke. Okay: What is a machine that can be used to get spices from the future? A thyme machine. (It’s a spice joke, get it?)  (I’m sorry.)

About Spice

As writer of the popular “Ask Eros” advice column, Simon Beck has an answer to every relationship question his readers can throw at him. When it comes to his own life, the answers are a little more elusive—until computer troubles introduce him to the newest and cutest member of his company’s IT support team. Simon may be charmed by Benji’s sweet and unassuming manner, but will he find the answer to the one relationship question he has never been able to solve: how to know when he’s met Mr. Right?
