Can you recommend any books for improving humor-based creativity and writing?

I don’t know about any books that sort of teach you how to create more, but I’ve read a lot of fictional books that are just so impressive and fun and easy to take in that they inspire me to try and create the same thing! Any of Simon Rich’s book collections (Ant Farm, Spoiled Brats, Free Range Chickens) or David Sedaris’s short story anthologies (Me Talk Pretty One Day) are great. This probably isn’t what you’re looking for, but I still say they help!

Thanks David for the book suggestions. I love Sedaris, and I plan to check out Simon Rich soon.
