I'm Back!

Last weekend I saw the comedian Patton Oswalt speak about his new book Zombie Spaceship Wasteland at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. He was hilarious as usual. Patton talked about his hodgepodge of show business jobs like dubbing the voice of the rat in Ratatouille, being a celebrity guest commentator on VH1's Best Week Ever, starring as lead man in the movie "Big Fan"...

After reading excerpts from his book, Patton did a little Q&A session with the audience. One woman asked if he had any advice for an aspiring comedian. He simply said "Go out every night". Every night go out to comedy clubs to put your stuff out there so people can hear it. No matter what, go out. Also, he said in this day and age there is no reason for a talented comedian not to "make it". We are living in the age of social media. There's YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Etsy, Tumblr... If you are talented and show your work, you will have a fan base
