Ted L. Nancy, author of the best selling "Letters from
A Nut" comedy books, is thrilled the long out of print "Stories From
A Moron" is now available on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iBooks. How
crazy is that?
Ted L. Nancy, who is of course, Barry Marder, wrote the book under the name Ed
Broth. With a Foreword by Jerry Seinfeld.
"I was confused, disoriented, and one more Thesaurus word, when I ate wild
mushrooms from the woods and wrote the Moron book. (Location taken off
Internet)," says Nancy. "I thought I was Ed Broth. Otherwise I would
have written it under Ted L. Nancy. I am shamefaced and semi mortified."
"Stories From A Moron" is short stories Broth sent to magazines ill
suited for them. He would write a story about shorty pajamas drying on a
clothesline and send it to a fencing magazine. The fencing magazine would
return the story explaining their magazine was for people into the art of
fencing and swordsmanship. Ed would resubmit the story and send it back now
with some fencing jammed in to the same story.
Ed would then send that whole mess of a story to a steamboat cruise magazine.
They would send it back as not right for them. Ed would add some steamboating -
toot tooting - a steamboat captain - along with the drying pajamas and fencing
and resend it.
"It is a twisted book. I am sorry for bringing it out again to the public
after they were rid of it for so long. I am embarrassed and disgraced, and one
more Thesaurus word," says Ted.
The book is sprinkled with funny illustrations by Alan Marder, illustrator of
all Ted L. Nancy’s books. Phyllis Murphy is Mr. Nancy’s guiding light. She DOES
NOT like shredded carrots.
Do not give her any.
Jerry Seinfeld revealed Barry Marder on "Larry King Live" and "The
Today Show" with Matt Lauer in September 2010 as the true author of the
"Letters From A Nut" books.
"Stories From A Moron" is published by St. Martins Press, a division
of Macmillan Books. It is also available to download on Kindle & Nook on
Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble online as well as a host of other digital
booksellers.
