I get my ideas from having been an elementary school teacher for ten years, reading books, being a dad, listening to music, staring out the window, thinking, staring out the window some more, and then writing stuff down. About 75 cents for each hardcover book and 15 cents for each paperback book. Then half of that goes to the government for taxes. So don't forget to ask for hardcover. When we work together, I usually write the story first.

Then we get together with his wife, Molly Leach and juggle things around so she can design the book to include all of our favorite jokes and gags. I live in Brooklyn, New York . Yes, I'm married. My daughter's name is Casey. My son's name is Jake.
