"When life gives you lemons, write jokes about dead lemons."

Dead Serious is a look inside Malone's mind and journal since losing his parents; a dark-humored exploration of depression, suicide, grief, and religion. Designed to be opened and read at any page, this collection of journal entries, illustrated one-liners, and humorous musings combine to create an unorthodox self-help book for anyone who has ever lost someone close to them and doesn't know where to go from here.

"If you have any doubt that the best humor comes from deep, dark places, this page-turner will make you a believer." - Brad Garrett
