About this product
Product Information
The new book, Hot Chocolate For The Mind is a collection of funny short stories and musings from Stand-Up Comedian Dwayne Perkins. Dwayne has traveled the world and luckily his sense of humor, keen observational skills, laptop and fingers were with him along the way. The native New Yorker, residing in Los Angeles and touring internationally brings inspiration and perspective to situations that would stump a lesser man. This is the book David Sedaris would've written if he was a straight Black man from Brooklyn doing stand-up in Dubai.A regular on Conan and Comedy Central, with this effort Dwayne expands his stand-up and paints pictures that keep you laughing long after you've read them. This collection of amusing musings leaves the reader with time-released comedy jewels.Just when you think you're safe you'll find yourself chuckling at the stranger in London who sprayed Dwayne with perfume while they stood in line at the pharmacy or the impromptu bake off Dwayne had with his roommate, or Dwayne's plan to become a stripper in order to better all mankind. Parallel to but more expansive than his stand-up, this book's positivity sneaks up on you. You pay for the laughs, the good vibes and inspiration are free. Some say this collection of comedy essays will make your teeth whiter. Others say it will make you grow a full inch. Dwayne hopes his anecdotes and philosophies warms your cockles while making you laugh so hard that soda comes out of your nose (drinking soda while reading this book is not recommended). It's fine time that a book left your mind in a better state than it found it in. "Hot Chocolate for the Mind" will fill you with goodness or at least help you laugh away your stress.This book won't teach you how to be a comedian but it will give you access into the inner workings of one of America's best comedic minds. "Hot Chocolate" seamlessly weaves from funny true stories to Dwayne's hilarious take on life. When you take a comic inspired by George Carlin, most compared to Bill Cosby but from the same streets as Chris Rock, you get a unique take on the world, you get stories that go down like warm pudding, you get, "Hot Chocolate For The Mind."From one of the top comedians working in America today comes one of the funniest books in a long time. Step You Should Take: 1. Click 'look inside' to get a sneak peek at this humorous book 2. See Dwayne live at some point in your amazing life 3. Enjoy this excerpt about the time dominated his cousins in Connect Four: Pretty Sneaky Sis I spent most of last weekend playing Connect 4 with my 10 and 9 year old little cousins. There's no better confidence builder than pouncing on little kids. When the smoke cleared, my win-loss record was 57-2. The two losses? Well, one was dumb luck and the other should have an asterisk because my cousin put in 2 red pieces at a time. I called it cheating. She called it improvising. Well, she would have called it that if she knew that word. I rule. 4. Buy Hot Chocolate for the Mind 5. Explain to your friends why you're laughing through out the day 6. Repeat step 4. (I kid but Step four is the most important step) 7. Have a great day About the Author: Dwayne Perkins is an internationally touring stand-up comic. He resides in Los Angeles, CA but mentions his hometown of Brooklyn, NY as much as humanly possible.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.
