5 Gifts for the Writer

With the holiday's quickly approaching, the writer on your list will most likely be the hardest to find a gift for. Writers tend to be quirky and their taste in life is unique.

Here are 5 wish list items from a fellow writer:

1. Nocturnal Journal - Can't Sleep Write Now $11.61

This is one of the most ingenious things I have seen in a good while. It is a journal for the fellow over thinker that gives prompts to write about at night. Examples include: "Describe the taste of regret" and "Late night movie list." It is also full of quotes like "Sleep is the most moronic fraternity in the world with the heaviest dues and the most crudest rituals." -Vladimir Nakabov Definitely something to ease the fast paced mind of even a novice writer or an insomniac (sometimes they are one in the same).

2. Shower Thinking- Aqua Notes $7.65

Some of the best and most impressive ideas that have ever come to mind happen at most inconvenient of times. One of those time is most definitely the shower. "Shower Thoughts" are something every writer experiences. The moment when a perfect way to reword that sentence you were struggling with comes to mind is also the same moment that you don't have a pen and paper. Simply said, Problem Solved!


3. Caffeine- Chai Tea $3.40

Tea is one of two ways writers actively consume caffeine. That and coffee. Whether you like your tea and coffee with cream and/or sugar, I think we can all agree all it needs to have is caffeine. The brand of tea pictured above is one of my favorites! It is available at most grocery stores.

4. Perfume that reminisces that of aging paper- Paperback $19.70

I can't say it better than the website, but this is a beautiful idea! Enjoy:

"Did you know that volatile organic compounds are released by aging paper and that it is these that give an old book that very distinctive, pleasantly musty scent? Clever scientists at the University College London have even devised a method of olfactory-based analysis in order to accurately measure the condition and age of historical documents and literary works on the basis of their aroma."

5. A letter from the heart- A Handwritten Letter

The best thing you can give a writer is your own writing. That is all I can say. Receiving the art of someone else is so beautiful. It feels more personal than anything else you can do for a writer.

I hope you have enjoyed this list! Writers may seem hard to gift so I hope this it helps.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
