The holidays are finally in full swing, and there’s nothing better than finding the perfect gifts for the people in your life. Writers are an eclectic type of people, so we’re here to help you find the best possible gift for the writer, or writers, in your life.
Rocketbook + Erasable Pens
This notebook is perfect for writers who love jotting things down but hate using a ton of paper. The notebook, which comes in a few sizes, contains 36 reusable pages. Simply use a Pilot friction gel pen or marker to write down all the things. Using the Rocketbook app, users can scan and send pages to multiple locations, including Google Drive, OneNote, Evernote, personal email, and more. Then, a damp cloth wipes the pages clean, making them ready to use again.

Annual Microsoft Subscription
Gone are the days of purchasing a Microsoft Office CD and installing it on your computer, now users pay an annual or monthly fee for access to Microsoft products. So this year, gift a writer an annual subscription for Microsoft and show him or her you are invested in their writing (literally).

Laptop Bag
Writers often cram their writing into every spare moment of their day, which means their laptops travel with them everywhere. A laptop bag is a great gift that helps them take writing essentials with them no matter where they go. Our bag of choice works for both male and female writers, has plenty of storage space for cords, notebooks, and pens, and of course a padded laptop pocket.

AirPods
Writers are constantly listening to something: audiobooks, podcasts, white noise or their favorite playlist while writing, and more. So, give them the gift of great sound with some Apple AirPods. These are perfect for writers on the go because they are cordless, hold a charge, provide great sound, and have a minimalistic design.

Typewriter
Do you know a writer who loves the analog lifestyle? Typewriters are continuing to make a comeback in the writing world, and for good reason. Typewriters allow writers to focus more intensely on their writing without distraction looming. There’s no notifications, email, or online research that can be done when using a typewriter.
