The Short Humour Site
is edited by Brian Huggett. He lives with
his wife and two cats in Hampshire,
England, and writes Short Humour under
the pen name of Swan Morrison.
Brian began to write Short
Humour in 2001 when he managed The
Booger Prize for Short Humour on the
Scoop The Loot competition
website. At that time this was the
longest running, free to enter, Short
Humour competition on the Internet.
Since 2001, Swan
Morrison’s Short Humour has appeared
in many magazines, both online and in
print.
Brian also writes captions
for humorous greeting cards produced by Paper House and has written
more serious work.
A compilation of one hundred
pieces of Swan Morrison’s Short
Humour, A Man of Few Words, is available from
major online booksellers.
Brian has also completed a
second book containing one hundred
further Swan Morrison stories, dialogues,
poems, letters, spoof news reports,
articles and songs. This book, A Man of a Few More
Words, is also available from
major online booksellers.
The third book in this Short
Humour trilogy, A Man of Yet a Few
More Words, is a work in progress.
All the books can be read on
this site.
Brian is also a photographer,
and a selection of his favourite work can
be viewed at: http://photographs-by-brian-huggett.blogspot.com.
All profits from the
writings of Swan Morrison are donated to
a UK registered charity, Friends of Teso (Uganda), which supports
people in Africa. We therefore hope that
you might buy a book or two, even though
they can be read on this site for free.
