It’s time for my annual gift list
for writers. If you haven’t finished
your holiday shopping consider one of the gifts below.
- An online writer’s workshop from Writer’s Digest -- Writer’s digest offers affordable online writing workshops. These workshops are taught by experts in the field and cover a wide range of topics (e.g. memoir writing, blogging, query letters).
- Books – A perfect gift for any writer.
- A subscription to writer’s magazine -- I have a digital subscription to Poets and Writers for only$2.50 per issue.
- 365 Affirmations for the Writer by Jane Hertenstein – A kindle book chocked full of inspiration for any writer.
- The 2015 Writer’s Market – If you know a writer getting ready to submit their work, the Writer's Market is an invaluable tool. This compilation of information about publishers is a perennial on my annual gift list.
- A Journal – Even if the writer you know generally works on a computer, give them a journal and they are sure to write in it. Check out Cafepress.com for a wide selection of journals.
- Scrivener - A great application for managing complex writing projects or keeping track of the research for that next project.

Mary Jo, great minds think alike. I have a list of frugal (think FREE!) gifts to give to writers on my blog: http://sharingwithwriters.blogspot.com/2014/12/ten-free-gifts-to-give-author-this.html And your readers might want to use this list as a New Year's gift list. Actually, the gift will be more unexpected and therefore maybe even more appreciated!
Mary Jo, great list of gifts for writers. What's great about these gifts is they keep on giving!
Great Ideas Carolyn. I shared them with one of my writers group.
Karen,
And that's the joy of writing...it's a gift that lasts a lifetime.
