Sometimes, it can be hard to shop for someone. You know a lot about them, but nothing you see seems right. If you have a friend or family member who hopes to be a writer (like me), it really isn't too challenging to get them something that they'll love. Here are just a few ideas.

1) A monogrammed/ personalized notebook

Something so simple can be a great gift for a lover of words and writing. Whether the notebook has a full name or just initials, it's special to have something that is only yours when you are going to do what you love.

2) Special pens

A lot of people think pens aren't a big deal; they all write the same way. This couldn't be further from the truth. Some pens write smoothly and allow words to flow even easier. A lot of the best pens are more expensive, but for the way it writes, it's worth it.

3) BOOKS

One of the best things a potential writer could do is read! Reading different styles, genres, authors, and so on, is an essential part of developing a personal writing style. Books are helpful to defuse and relax after trying to write, too.

4) Writer-esque jewelry

Jewelry is typically a popular gift for anybody. If you're shopping for a writer, something related to writing is great. A quill ring, a typewriter necklace, or personalized calligraphy bracelets are just some of the items a writer would love.

5) Anything from Out Of Print

When it comes to book-related clothing, Out Of Print Clothing is the place to go! Their website puts book-related images on t-shirts, notebooks, and even tote bags. They are all unique items that a reader or writer would love.

Writing is something near and dear to my heart. Each of these gifts is something that I personally would want to get, but I believe others would love these, too.
