Monday Market: Ephemera.com

Sometimes you've just gotta have fun writing. And here's the perfect market...

Ephemera.com is a company that designs and creates wild and wacky buttons, stickers and magnets and ships them all over the world. Not your traditional slogans, either--we're talking laugh-out-loud funny here.

Besides the fact that we all need humor, they pay $50 for exclusive rights for every slogan they use. Not bad for a few minutes of thought.

Happy (and funny) writing,
