I was kidnapped by terrorists, tied to a chair, and forced to watch Dr. Phil's daytime TV program for more than three weeks before US commandos rescued me. Over the course of those three endless weeks, I decided that it was time someone put Dr. Phil and his simpleton recommendations in his place.
While "Get Real, Dr. Phil: Discrediting Television's Most Overrated Psychologist" has an extensive amount of humor in it, including some R-rated content, I have attempted to offer actual insight and possible cures for some problems that plague our society. If Dr. Phil knew what he was doing, he would offer the same methods. But, alas, he doesn't even know of the possible cures I discuss. Combined with a short exposé of the McGraw family and its shady dealings at the end of the book, perhaps we can finally put Dr. Phil out to pasture for good.
For my other books, I still find "Women May Be From Venus, But Men Are Really From Uranus" funny. Sure, it's just one joke after another while ridiculing John Gray's advice, but who doesn't need to laugh now and then?
So who is Katherine Black?
Katherine Black is a pen name. When I write under it, I see the world through the eyes of the character I have created, which is a woman in her late 50s who has a great deal of wisdom and objective advice to offer. The opinion is usually steeped in humor, but I write what works best for that character.
Those who have read my writing (including edited works) compare it as a mix of Al Franken and Bill Maher, but I believe I have my uniqueness.view less
