One Liners

Bailey-girl as a penguin.

So, as I'm writing this book, I am conscious that my characters are supposed to be funny. They're not comedians, per say, but there is a certain level of comedy that goes along with so many personalities coexisting and interacting.
And there are many types of humor represented by my characters. Rom has very dark, deprecating humor. Ede is laughably frustrated. Aylin is mischievous. Bramar has a gift for observational humor. You get the idea.
What's the problem? I'm glad you asked.
I'm having trouble coming up with humorous events/lines. The story seems bogged down by important plot and heavy character development.
How do you find the funny?
