When you write, try By Chris Spark

When you write, try

to be drunk. That way 

you’re stumbling 

and you might fall 

into some 


amazing ditch.






Chris Spark (a.k.a. Chris Dingman) graduated summa cum laude with a degree in biology from Harvard where he began writing humor for The Harvard Lampoon and poetry for himself. From screenplays to songs to philosophy to more poetry, he’s been writing ever since. He optioned his first screenplay to Warner Bros. in 1989, and has since been involved in various Hollywood shenanigans.

One of Spark’s  pieces  was  included, alongside those of Conan O’Brien and John Updike, in The Best of the Harvard Lampoon: 140 Years of American Humor. He’s a published poet, and a   contributor to The American Bystander, which Newsweek called the “last great humor magazine.” He’s also a frequent lecturer of friends and family.
