    Our Failed Attempts to Make English Eezier to Spell with Author Gabe Henry

    Click here to register for this online event and submit questions for the author.

    This event is online-only. Have you ever wondered why the English spelling of words is sometimes… well… just weird? Come on a surprisingly hilarious journey with us and author Gabe Henry through the history of the English language, while we discuss troublemakers like Mark Twain who broke all the rules.

    In Enough is Enuf, Gabe Henry humorously traces the “simplified spelling movement” from medieval England to Revolutionary America, from the birth of standup comedy to contemporary pop music, and explores its lasting influence in words like color (without a U), plow(without -ugh), and the iconic ’90s ballad “Nothing Compares 2 U.” Finally, Henry brings us to the digital age, where the swift pace of online exchanges now pushes us all 2ward simplification.

    Register now for this informative and entertaining conversation to find out why Gabe Henry thinks UR not a bad speller, the English language is.

    About the Author: Gabe Henry is the author of three books including the poetry anthology Eating Salad Drunk, a humor collaboration with Jerry Seinfeld, Bob Odenkirk, Mike Birbiglia, Margaret Cho, and other titans of comedy. Henry’s work has been published in TIME, New York Magazine, The New Yorker, the Weekly Humorist,US News & World Report, and more.
