HI, I'M IN DESPERATE NEED OF ADVICE. I HAVE TO WRITE A SKETCH SHOW THAT IS A TRANSFORMATION OF THE TEXT 'JANE EYRE', WHERE CAN I START? SHOULD EACH SKETCH HAVE A CATCH PHRASE? ALSO, WHERE CAN I FIND INSPIRATION...AND HOW CAN I ENSURE THAT WHAT I AM WRITING IS FUNNY? IS THERE SOME KIND OF RULE I SHOULD FOLLOW? THANKS.

Are you writing it as a spoof or is it a more straight comedy?

Might be better to get some comedy script books from the library.
That way, you'll see the writing styles.
There's been a lot of comedy over the years, so there'll be a lot to choose from.
Talking of the library. I was doing some D.I.Y a few months ago.
Mrs. Razzle wanted some shelves putting up. I hadn't a clue, so I went down to the library
to get some.
As soon as I got in, the librarian woman was there to help.
"Excuse me love!" I said "Have you got any books on shelves?"....
;D
Bloody Beltin'!
