When writing the first draft, I'm totally focused on writing the "story." Once that is complete, I approach revision a layer at a time. Humor is one layer. If I think of a humorous retort, dialog, or situation, I'll include it. If I'm not sure where the humor will work best, I'll make a note. I can include it during revision so I can find the best place in the text for it. <br /><br />I probably should do a series of blogs on the process of writing, using such examples as I just mentioned.
