We love writers and we love humor, so when we meet a writer who has a humor column, even better. And Erik Deckers — a name familiar to people in these parts — fits the bill.Erik's weekly syndicated humor column is a fun read, just as his attempts at solving the Canonical Couplet each episode are a fun listen. But we delve deeper than humor with Erik: we talk about his writing history, his term as a writer-in-residence at the Jack Kerouac House, as well as the Sherlockian connection to the author of On the Road.You'll want to stick around for the Canonical Couplet to see if you can win a prize from the IHOSE vaults.Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by November 29, 2023 at 11:59 a.m. EST.
