Xmas gift guide for writers

Are you searching for a gift for a wannabe wordsmith? Or training your relatives to buy you Christmas presents you actually want? Then this list of literary gifts is for you (and them)…

1) Fire up the festive season with a deep dive into five-act structure via John Yorke’s brilliant book Into The Woods.

2) Go for a gift voucher with online and in-person literary course providers Arvon.  

3) Stuff a stocking full of literary goodness with The Literary Gift Company’s wide range of ‘brilliantly bookish stocking fillers’. Think pencils to pins and socks to soap…

4) Visit the website of writer, artist, and TYPE! contributor Tom Alexander for wonderfully inventive and off-the-wall stories in physical formats. If your literary pals would like to read and then smoke 10 regretful incidents, or find a short story about an intern on a genuine tie, Tom’s art is where to start.

5) Go gold star or a for a three-month fling with Writers’ HQ memberships.

6) Search for merch on this section of etsy.

7) Equip the colour-coding ‘plotter’ in your life with up to 65 variations of the Stabilo 0.4mm fineliner.
