The gift of inspiration
Erma Bombeck gave us so many witty, memorable lines.
"Guilt: the gift that keeps on giving." "In two decades I've lost a total of 789 pounds. I should be hanging from a charm bracelet."
She made us laugh, but she also inspired us.
We're featuring some of Erma's most inspirational words on the back of a new EBWW T-shirt: "When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, 'I used everything you gave me.'"
The shirt is available exclusively through the University of Dayton Bookstore. Within two weeks, we'll also offer a "You Can Write!" coffee mug.
All proceeds benefit the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop endowment fund that helps support one of the best workshops for writers anywhere.
Give yourself the gift of inspiration. These items make great gifts for family and friends, too.
Share the Erma spirit!
