Synopsis

Need to make a speech? Make them laugh and they will listen. This book is an hilarious collection of short funny speeches and monologues. From 2002 to 2004, James travelled to 19 countries on 5 continents, as an international writer and public speaker. He realised very early in his speaking career that the best way to capture and retain an audience's attention was with the use of comedy. So, making his audience laugh became his main focus. These are his most cherished speeches. Making his audience laugh is still the greatest 'high' that James gets from speaking.James says, "When you say something funny, and your audience laughs, you know that it's a genuine response and you've got through to them. You will find that I use many of my funny speeches to deliver some very important messages to my audience. It's incredibly hard to get an audience's attention when talking about a serious subject, but by using comedy, you capture their attention and they listen more carefully to make sure they don't miss out on your next joke or funny line. That's the perfect time to hit them with something important, something profound. You can then rest assured that your message has been heard loud and clear. Then it's back to more comedy. You can't afford to let them doze off for a minute!"Public speaking is quite an art. An art that is continuously being refined with each speech you deliver to a live audience. These speeches and monologues are for your entertainment, and if your goal is to build confidence as a public speaker, they are an excellent way to go. If you have a speech to give, please feel free to use these speeches as a guide.
