Apparently I’m kind of funny, but people hardly ever notice because they don’t normally pay any attention to me. Or if they do, it’s the wrong kind of attention, and they’re not going to hear what I have to say because they’re too focused on roughing me up.

Do girls like funny? They don’t pay attention to me either. Even if I knew how to approach them, I’d never get past my first sentence before they’d walk away or shut me down. All this comedy gold is going to waste.

Everyone knows high school can be a nightmare, especially if you’re smart or funny. With his best friends by his side, Tom Mayo will navigate the perils of adolescence; from atomic wedgies from the Donkeys, wood shop with crazy Mr. Boort, tentative first dates, and horrible first jobs, Miracle Wimp is the hilarious, episodic account of one quippy, sarcastic antihero trying to survive high school.

Genre:
