John's first collection, Selfie-Facing, was named one of \"The Best Self-Published Books of 2016\" by the Huffington Post (the only humor title so honored). Since then, he's chased after other prizes, including a MacArthur \"genius\" grant and the elusive Pulitzer. (Visualize, if you will, a writer doggedly chasing after his own tale -- er, tail.) And then there are the puns... John Branning is a humorist whose writings have left literally millions of readers with no idea who he is. A resident of Winthrop, Maine, his work has been featured in multiple publications and can also be found on his website: JohnBranning.com.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 196\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 28, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42724128882751,"sku":"9780997077391","price":19.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/52d5e123d635d42247f9d23e1a8cb95c.webp?v=1765101584","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/the-best-i-can-do-paperback-1","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
