T-Shirt Designs with Famous Writers

We'd like to begin this week's post by wishing a happy birthday to Dorothy Parker. This witty writer and poet was born on August 22nd, 1893. She's best remembered for such phrases as "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy" and "This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force". Any writer who made the Hollywood black list is A-okay in our book. So happy birthday, Dorothy. We've designed a t-shirt in your honor.

We've also designed a new George Orwell t-shirt which we think is quite striking. It has clean simple lines and a bold typeface befitting the author of "1984". We hope you like it.

And no, we're not afraid of Virginia Woolf, but we are a little bit intimidated. Did you see Nicole Kidman playing her in "The Hours" with the putty on her nose? What a great performance. We're not sure that our t-shirt does Ms. Woolf justice, but we'll let you be the judge.

Lastly, we have a new Franz Kafka t-shirt. Franz worked hard at an insurance company by day and did his writing at night. Perhaps that is why it is so dark. Most of his work was published posthumously. We just wanted to let him know that he hasn't been forgotten.
