Want to experience (or relive) some of the high points of the 2016 Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop?

Check out the workshop's YouTube channel. We've posted seven new videos, including excerpts from keynote talks by Roy Blount Jr., Amy Ephron, Leighann Lord, and Kathy Kinney and Cindy Ratzlaff. You can also enjoy Wendy Liebman's stand-up opening at Attendee Comedy Night, excerpts from Gina Barreca's Erma 101 session and a conversation with the Bombeck family, playwrights Allison and Margaret Engel and actress Barbara Chisholm following the one-woman play, Erma Bombeck: At Wit's End. These segments on our YouTube channel join 14 stand-ups by brave, funny attendees who closed the workshop with humor and panache.

You can also peruse the joyful photos of attendees and images from the classroom, podium and dinner table of the talented writers who taught and inspired us.
